Story Behind The Song
"Two Chord Song" actually started with two chords, and a girl writing a song for a boy she'd fallen in love with. It was one of the first songs I wrote for my boyfriend whom I'm now sharing my madness with for over three years, and who's on the cover of the song with me. And it makes me happy to see how the song grew - just like we did as a couple - from two chords to a piece with many layers. .
For me it's a public celebration of a wonderful relationship that has made me grow as a person and enriched my live throughout the last years (and hopefully many to come!). That´s what Two Chord Song is about, sharing your madness with someone without shame or fear. Dreaming together, laughing, dancing... it's about that feeling that you get when you're in love. The feeling that everything is possible!

Lyrics
I didn't think this would happen again
Then you showed up
I screamed that I was tired of loves little game
Until you made me shut up
Dinosaurs are birds and birds are free
Like dinosaurs but more alive we could be
In our own universe
Away from the system, invent our own religion
Divide infinity in two and it's still the same
Only you could understand
Let's create a world without sense,
for everyone but ourself
Just you and me, we could be
Watching the sunset and the stars,
building a solar park on mars
Change the world, it shouldn't hurt
I just want to be mad about you,
you could be mad about me
We could be mad together
We could play this two cord song,
'cause simple isn't always wrong
It doesn't have to be forever
We could turn the world around,
make it spin the other way
Say everything without a word to say,
in our own nonsense
We could be a mess, worry less about forever
Forbid the word never, and feel very clever,
in a perfect sentence
I just want to be mad about you,
you could be mad about me
We could be mad together
We could play this two cord song,
'cause simple isn't always wrong
It doesn't have to be forever
And I want to be crazy with you,
you could be crazy with me
We can live our dream and fight against gravity
And they, they don't have to understand,
just come and hold my hand
It's about you and me
I never thought this would happen again
But then you came around
I'm in love with your madness
I'm stunned, so this is your song
