Battery is highly likely.

Reason Battery is dead may need to be reserched. If it is an old battery replace or you left the lights on, recharge. If you did nothing wrong and it is a newer battery (high quality batteries last 5 years), check your alternator and *another part that is totally slipping my mind but I am not going to strain for the fact that you probably just have an old battery*
