about

I came up with the idea for this song while walking through Times Square in New York City. I couldn't possibly walk in a straight line and I compared that experience to my life at the time.

lyrics

Zig Zag

C G Am F
I’ve got to zig zag like I’m drunk like I’m crazy
as I walk through the mazy of these city streets
And there are faces, some are clean, some are dirty,
some are young, cute and flirty. That I want to meet.

It is so sad when my day has no flavor
Like a spice I should savor, but I only eat
Still I walk on, feeling so uninspired
Like my feet have retired and they’d rather sleep.

Pre-chorus: G F
Oh My, It’s getting way too clear
I must get out of here

Chorus: F G C
And start a brand new day
A little less lazy
New Day… a lot more crazy
When the morning sun, shines my way
I’m going to wake to find, I’m one of a kind
And say, I’ve got a brand new day

Verse 2:
I’ve been so down talking down in the gutter
Though my heart’s all a flutter, stuck up in a tree
How it got there, well I can’t quite remember
But the fire’s now an ember, there’s not much to see

I march on like a horse wearing blinders
‘cause I don’t want reminders of what used to be
I question every step I am taking
Since my ground has been shakin’ and it’s warning me

Pre-chorus: G F
Oh My, It’s getting way too dark
I need to find my spark

Chorus

Bridge:
G E7 Am F / G E F G
There’s a shiver of sharks swimming up my spine
No wonder I’m not walking in one straight line
Have I been doing it wrong all this time
I think I better change my mind

And start a brand new
(Drum solo)

Chorus:
And start a brand new day
New day, new day, new day

Start a brand new day
A little less lazy
New day
A lot more crazy
When the morning sun shines my way
I’m going to wake up to find I’m one of a kind and say
I’ve got a brand new day.
