It Happens

As a warm up for the RPM Challenge I have gotten into the habit of digging up old mostly forgotten songs from my carefree youth and recording new demos. This year seems to be mostly focused on a band I played in between 1997 and 2000. This song was written shortly before the band broke up and is therefore more forgotten than most. I do remember having fun with this one, even if we didn’t play it for long.

All of the guitars are Les Paul.

every once in a while
no matter how hard I try
I can figure things out
I can get things right

it doesn’t happen too often
its certainly not the norm
when all the stars are aligned
it seems to come out right

chorus
it happens I know that it happens
I cant wait until it happens again
it happens I know it can happen
all I have to do is figure out when

its almost like magic
things just go right for me
so when I feel tragic
I just think of today

every once in a while
things just don’t seem so bad
I wish I could hold it
and always feel this way
