This song started out as just the phrase 'tie dyed masterpiece' that popped into my head while I helped my dad tie dye a lab coat.  For a few weeks, that's all that this song was, a title.  Then, I messed around on guitar and poof! This song came into existence.

I kinda wrote this song twice.  I had it finished, but then I realized that I had completely changed the storyline I was trying to create, so I scrapped half of the song and rewrote it.  But now, I'm happier with it, so it's ready to be posted to my songbook. Enjoy!!

Verse:
There was a time our slates were clean
No past, no history
But then one day we crossed the road
To a place we had never known

Prechorus:
Oh, it's kinda crazy how we got here
When we started it was so unclear
It's kinda crazy, this path we chose
All these colors, they start to show, oh

Chorus:
We got a tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, you and me now
Tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, nothing can hold us down
Tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, nothing will slow us down
Oh, woah, oh, look at our tie dyed masterpiece

Verse:
They said we'll never make it that far
And we almost let them tear us apart
But when we saw the writing on the walls
We just covered it with our own works of art

Prechorus:
Oh, it's kinda crazy how we got here
When we started it was so unclear
It's kinda crazy, this path we chose
All these colors, they start to show, oh

Chorus:
We got a tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, you and me now
Tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, nothing can hold us down
Tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, nothing will slow us down
Oh, woah, oh, look at our tie dyed masterpiece

Bridge:
Maybe we lost it once or maybe we lost it twice
But I kept on looking at our abstract lives
And I saw a clearer picture in the crazy color show
It was one of a kind, I couldn't let it go

Prechorus:
It's kinda crazy how we got here
When we started it was so unclear
It's kinda crazy, this path we chose
The greatest journey we've ever known

Chorus:
We got a tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, you and me now
Tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, nothing can hold us down
Tie dyed, yeah, masterpiece now
We got it right, yeah, nothing will slow us down
Oh, woah, oh, look at our tie dyed masterpiece

Outro:
Look at our tie dyed masterpiece

Masterpiece

There was a time our slates we clean
No past, no history
