Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You walked into rehearsal with a smile upon your face,
Then one small disagreement changed the feeling in the place.
You said, “Turn up my microphone,” then, “Turn that music down,”
We barely got through verse one before you turned around.

You put your guitar down and said you might be through,
Then played a brand-new melody and asked us what we knew.
We pulled our chairs in closer, found some words to fit your tune,
Now we’re laughing, making music, like we always used to do.

[Choris]
One day you’re mad, the next day you’re sad
Then you tell me you love me, and then you hate me so bad
I tried to understand,
The ways of your life,
But you keep me guessing,
But we still keep you in the band

One day you’re mad, the next day you’re sad
Your ways are so concerning
But when you’re happy, we are glad
We are willing to take this ride on the journey let’s go
We have lyrics to write, and music to play
So let’s do what we do, and start the show

[Verse 2]
We’re backstage getting ready, and you say you won’t go on,
Then you hear the crowd out front and ask, “What’s our opening song?”
You’re pacing by the curtain, saying nothing’s going right,
Then you turn and ask us, “Do you think we’ll shine tonight?”

We tell you, “We’re together, come on out and take your place,”
You step up to the microphone, a smile across your face.
The drummer counts us in, and you give everything you’ve got,
We never know what’s coming, but we’re giving you your shot.

[Bridge]
When the spotlight finds you, all your worries fade away,
You turn the nerves to music, and you own the stage today.
We may not know the next line, but we know where we belong,
Together in the moment, turning chaos into song.

[Choris]
One day you’re mad, the next day you’re sad
Then you tell me you love me, and then you hate me so bad
I tried to understand,
The ways of your life,
But you keep me guessing,
But we still keep you in the band

One day you’re mad, the next day you’re sad
Your ways are so concerning
But when you’re happy, we are glad
We are willing to take this ride on the journey let’s go
We have lyrics to write, and music to play
So let’s do what we do, and start the show

[Outro]
The final notes are ringing, and the crowd begins to cheer,
You take a bow beside us, with a smile from ear to ear.
Whatever comes tomorrow, we’ll remember this tonight,
Together on the stage, we made the chaos shine bright.

Mood swings, your mood swings
Mood swings, your mood swings

Always keep us going
