‘Sad Beautiful Tragic’ is a song that I wrote while I was on tour and I was on a tour bus that was moving and I just started playing this haunting, sad chorus and it was kind of just very simple 'what a sad beautiful tragic love affair’ and it was just reflecting on something that was lost and you can’t get it back. And I went home and I called up Nathan Chapman and said 'hey, I wrote a song, please please please can we record today?’ and of course, he said yes and we used that original demo on the album because it just came across so pure and raw. -- source link
