This is a song about me, Dave Matthews and the band I formed   It was what? ten years ago   That was when it all started at the earth-day festival   That was our first show, God I was so nervous!   We had four songs total, maybe five   When we got on stage it was magic   I mean halfway through our first song      Everybody came alive   Dave Matthews Band comes alive   At the Earth-day Festival   At a concert in Brazil   Dave Matthews Band comes alive   At a Mardi Gras groovery   Are as Chilly's as Bar and Grill   They come alive, they come alive      Yeah I was nervous, but you know   gradually you learn to overcome your fears   I guess I've always been kind of shy   I was what I like to call a dormroom guitarist for about seven years
