Lyrics

You gotta think about it You gotta make a wish and count to ten There's just a sense of wonder I feel a new direction looking down the lens Jump started the action Heard a song in my head and wrote it down It came out of nowhere Felt a new sensation driving you through town You're an open chord I wanna play all day A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play Cleaning out the corners Clipping out the horrors That the Devil used to make me wear all day You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day You're gonna see some changes Gotta pinch myself just to believe Everybody's having something But I can tell you've got some magic up your sleeve Some deep protection When a feeling follows you around I always need the silence Or the lightning you bring like a new good sound You're an open chord I wanna play all day A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play Cleaning out the corners Clipping out the horrors That the Devil used to make me wear all day You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day Sat around and waited for a spark And it brightened up the night Before I get much older I want the pleasure of seeing you up in lights I could then beside you Hand over my heart and say a prayer Love's not for quitters It's a satisfaction Knowing that you're there You're an open chord I wanna play all day A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play Cleaning out the corners Clipping out the horrors That the Devil used to make me wear all day You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day Cleaning out the corners Clipping out the horrors That the Devil used to make me wear all day You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day
