It still moves. My Morning Jacket.





1. Mahgeetah.


Sittin here with me and mine, all wrapped up in a bottle of wine. Little we can do... we gon see it thru somehow. So... now are you ready to go? My lady. I been waitin on the boat here I been waitin so long, "can he see me? Does he feel me? Does he know me at all?" "Does it shiver? Always deliver? Does it know me at all?"

Bang! bang! goes the night, all wrapped up in the firelight. Don't "rock bottom," just listen, just slow down. So... now are you ready to go, my lady? I been waitin on the boat here, I been waitin so long...


2. Dancefloors.

Daybreak, nightfall, long as I believe. There ain't nothing glowin like this skin you're showin and the keys you gave to me. Nightjails, poolhalls, some things are everywhere. So for the past I'm diggin a grave so big, it will swallow up the sea. Oh I know... That it's easy... There's no trouble waitin for me.

Dancefloors, headlights, in my blood there's gasoline for an urban boy on a dirty tour, I never felt so clean. Loaded questions in an automatic world, you just won't be seein the things you need, as if you thought you would. Oh I know... it's never easy... when there's trouble waitin for me.


3. Golden.

Watchin' a stretch of road, miles of light explode. Driftin' off a thing I'd never done before, watchin' a crowd roll in. Out go the lights it begins, a feelin' in my bones I never felt before... Mmm... People always told me, that bars are dark and lonely and talk is often cheap and filled with air. Sure sometimes they thrill me. But nothin' could ever chill me.

Like the way they make the time just disappear, feelin' you are here again. Hot on my skin again. Feelin good a thing I'd never known before, what does it mean to feel? Millions of dreams come real, a feelin' in my soul I'd never felt before... Mmm... And you always told me. No matter how long it holds me if it falls apart or makes us millonaires. You'll be right here forever. We'll go thru this thing together and on heaven's golden shore we'll lay our heads.


4. Masterplan.


I've got a masterplan babe, I been workin on it from the start. Pluggin in all of the numbers, watchin it on all of the charts. Just cause it starts off slow babe, doesn't mean it don't have a heart. You'll be walkin round showin off someday and it'll take you right back to the start. It's everything that you want babe. It's everything that you need. Soft and warm all the time, make you want it over and over. Strong on the horizon, but ends up bein really so sweet... oh so sweet.

Sometimes I wanna lay down babe. Sometimes I wanna stand up and fight. Sometimes it runs it's course in a day. Sometimes it goes for night after night. Know that it will start off strong babe, and it will end up weak in the end. Just like the heart you break of a love babe, just like the hand you take of a friend. It's everything that you want babe. It's everything that you need. Soft and warm all the time, make you want it over and over. Strong on the horizon, but ends up bein really so sweet... oh so sweet...


5. One big holiday.

Wakin up feelin good and limber, when the telephone it ring. Was a bad man from California tellin of a stone he'd bring and of better days. From this town, we'd escape if we holler loud and make our way. We'd all live one big holiday, so we listened and up the river and recorded all the sounds. Was some shakin and some record playin, all the leather kids were loud.


6. I will sing you songs.

I will sing to you of greater things, money, gold, and diamond rings. Just don't make it last any longer than it has to. Stories of the greater things, fill your heart and soul with beer (tears). Just don't make it last any longer than it has to.

I will sing to you of greater things, money, gold, and diamond rings. Just don't make it last any longer than it has to. Stories of the greater years, what's in here won't disappear. Just don't make it last any longer than it has to.


7. Easy Monday rebel.

Well the easy morning rebel, well he has come. Come down from heaven, all bathed in sun. He'll take to flyin, he'll take to the road... as long as he's movin to get dey blood! He'll be the water if you'll be the wine. Sent down from heaven in this earthly disguise, well the evening rebel, his heart is stone. This earthly body... just a temporary home, a dream of movin moves on thru the night, and he sure looks good when he moves in the light.

He'll be the water if you'll be the wine. Sent down from heaven in this earthly disguise, black hearted ruler? I only knew...that loving moment I had with you.


8. Run trhu.

Oh shit run! oh shit run! oh shit run thru the ghetto. They will hear you, mornin bell tolls at home. Rings loud back where I come from. Calls me back, often times I would hope and pray. Then faith came my way.

Oh shit run! Oh, It's what appears to me, it's what appears to me. Oh shit run! Oh, It's what appears to me, it's what appears to me. Ah…


9. Rollin back.

Just in the nick of time you got me... while I was sittin here. Time I don't think I waste it, it just seems to disappear. Sippin the wine you got me, while eyes were rollin back, long hours and hard hard things just bring heart attacks, oh oh oh you had me, wrapped up in your mystery...when the light vanished from on high, oh I'll never say I knew you, but my heart can't wait, to meet you on the other side.

When I think about the story, one thing seems pretty clear. The warm things you left behind they still want you here, but only in time you find... that all things come back around. And just like the frown, we'll turn them upside down, oh oh oh you had me. Wrapped up in your mystery...when the light vanished from on high, oh I'll never say I knew you, but my heart cant wait to meet you no the other side.


10. Just one thing.

Baby, there's just one thing, one thing that does it, does it for me. Baby, we'll find a way, we'll go out, out for a day. And I want it so bad! It's the first thing I see when I wake. So bad! it's the first thing I see when I wake.


11. Steam engine.

So, I do believe, none of this is physical, at least not to me. So, I do believe that anywhere it goes, it's always with me. It's not the dream that makes you weak, it's not the night that makes you sleep. But it's a voice, and it's a choice, to call you out. Or stay at home.

So! I do believe, none of this is physical, at least not to me. So I do believe that anywhere it goes, it's always with me. It's not the beast, it's not the sheets, so soft and warm. All over me, but it's the touch, you need so much, to move around on this green earth. Take your money and your drugs, take your money and your drugs, to anyone who wondered. What old jebus meant to me, take him out to go diving in red patoka sea.

The brain melts in the twilight with the boar and moving trees. Your skin looks good in moonlight and god damn those shaky knees, the fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need. I believe…


12. One in the same.

On the way back home... how long did it seem? Three days or fou? Snow glazed all the trees. My mother held me... like a motorcycle, so warm...we sang melody...campin out all night... slow moves in the light…of all the things that you've seen. Was the motorcycle so warm you sang melody? Wt that moment I'd know... just how close we could be. And though it always was mine... it always seemed new to me.

10,000 colors in all... eyes like caves on my cheeks. To all the people I've loved... don't think poor of me, it wasn't till I woke up... that I could hold down a joke or a job or a dream. But then all three are one in the same and all then are one in the same, and all us are one in the same.

Z. My Morning Jacket.




1. Wordless chorus.


So much going on these days, forget about instinct, it's not what pays. Pleasure, up and down my smile, a carton of eggs think, it's all worthwhile. Tell me spirit, what has not been done? I'll rush out and do it or are we doing it now?

Fissure is the thrill of the day, forget about feeling, that's not what pays. But you know all of this can change, remember the promise as a kid you made.

We are the innovators, they are the imitators. Come on, hey don't you know how we started, we forgot about love, but weren't brokenhearted.


2. It beats 4 U.

Who could see and not believe? The heart that beats the wavelength. And who could say but never do? Things they've said to someone who. Thru all that's been and all will be, so in line so thoughtfully. In tune with you, so in time for me. New thoughts arrive, so in time for me.

Who can count the time I'm beatin with my hands? Who can stop the smoke from breathin in my head? Words will come and words will go, make believe and overthrow. Just believe and you can do, you know my heart, it beats for you. It beats 4 u, so in time we beat. Your thoughts align, so in time with me.


3. Gideon.

Gideon, what have you told us at all? Make a sound, come down off the wall. Religion, should appeal to the hearts of the young, who are you? What have you become? You animal, come on, what does this remind you of?

Truly, truly we have become, hated and feared for something we don't want. Listen, listen, most of us believe that this is wrong. You animal, come on, what does this remind you of? What does this remind you of? Animal, come on.


4. What a wonderful man.

He was leading us thru the dark, he was sayin that "love goes on." I was wanting some ice cream, he knew exactly what I meant. From the driver's seat in the dark, he popped a tape in the dash of his car and when the singer started to scream I knew exactly what he meant. I never knew for sure, what a wonderful man he was, what a sensible man he was, what a marvelous man he was.

Why do we love what is wrong? Big devil told us to sing along and like a loving flock we obey, except for him, he went his own way. I never knew for sure, what a wonderful man he was, till the day I found out his cause, was to do it for all of us


5. Off The record.

Sorry about the things that I had to say, and I'll make it up to you right now at the penny arcade. In an open car or wherever you are, push yourself too hard and it might get hot. Well I really don't need the confusion, and you know I just ain't the type to get all wrapped up in the illusion of doin something that I know ain't right, right right?

You've got to want to re-arrange and keep it off the record, off the record. You've got to know that we will change and keep it off the record, off the record.

In a crowded room near the box of boom, to an artificial tune, I see you swoon. Well you knew all this would turn to mist if your idea wasn't kissed, why're you so pissed? Well I know you don't need the confusion and I know you just ain't the type to get all wrapped up in the illusion of doin something that you know ain't right, right right…

You've got to want to rearrange and keep it off the record, off the record. You've got to know that we are strange and keep it off the record, off the record. You've got to know that we will change and keep it off the record, off the record come on.


6. Into the woods.

A kitten on fire, a baby in a blender, both sound as sweet as a night of surrender. I know it ain't easy, but you do what you can. If your livin gets weezy, you can follow this plan. Put in more than you could ever get out, I'm tired of the talking, I know what you're about. Now open your mouth, here comes the spoon. You're gonna eat what I give you, and you're gonna like it real good.

I went over the river, and into the woods, where did I go? Where a wood buring stream flows up thru the trees like the soul of the hottest kind of lover I've ever seen, one who lives to choose another fool's dream.

A good showerhead and my right hand, the two best lovers that I ever had. Now, if you find you agree with what I just said, you'd better find a new love and let 'em into your head.

I went over the river, and into the woods, where did I go? Where a wood buring stream flows up thru the trees like the soul of the hottest kind of lover I've ever seen, one who lives to choose another fool's dream.


7. Anytime.

Is this climbing up to the moon? Or is it bailing out too soon? I hope we didn't wait too long, I hope we didn't wait too long. All that I wanted to say, words only got in the way, but then I found another way to communicate.

Is this climbing up to the moon? Or is it fadin out too soon? I know we didn't, I know we didn't wait too long, cause anytime's a good time to move on. Things I could say to myself, I could never say to anyone else. But what Madonna said really helped, she said: "boy, you better learn to express yourself!"

I know we didn't, I know we didn't wait too long cause anytime's a good time to move on


8. Lay low.

Lay low why don't you now? Lay back awhile and I'll show ya, I got the good that you want, no need to go and, hunt something else, it's right here with me, when you stay. It's always good when I get to see that there's never more than what you're telling me, when you stay, home.

Lay low if the feel is right, I got all that I want here in you tonite and we'll pass out on the bedroom floor after going like this so long. Hold up, you showed me.

Oh what you told me, oh what you told me it's not what you want but what you need, it's not a head full of booze (pills) or amphetamines, when you stay. It's always good when I get to see that there's never more than what you're telling me, when you stay, home

Lay low if the feel is right, I got all that I want here in you tonite and we'll pass out on the bedroom floor after going like this so long. Lay low if the feel is right, I got all that I want here in you tonite and we'll pass out on the bedroom floor after going like this so long.


9. Knot comes loose.

B.b.b.b. can't you see that I'm smiling? Can't you see there's a part of me that's brand new? Used to be, was a part of me felt like hiding, but now it comes thru. Deep in my heart, that's where the knot comes loose, deep in my heart, I will remember you.

All my lovely life I been waiting, hot heels anticipating, another love I found not to let it down. Deep in my heart, that's where the knot comes loose, deep in my heart, I will remember you.

B.b.b.b. can't you see that I'm smiling? Can't you see there's a part of me that's brand new? Used to be, was a part of me felt like hiding, but now it comes thru.


10. Dondante.

In a dream I saw you walking, like a kid alive and talking, that was you. In the classroom you were teaching, on the streets you were policing, that was you. To the one I now know most, I will tell them of your ghost like a thing that never, ever was.

And all that ever mattered will some day turn back to batter like a joke. Behind thin walls you hid your feelings, take four legs to make a ceiling like a thing.

In a dream I saw you walking, with your friends alive and talking, that was you. Well I saw it in your movement, and even though you never knew it. Well, I knew, just how sweet it could be, if you'd never left these streets.

You had me worried, so worried, that this would last. You had me worried, so worried, that this would last. But now I'm learning, learning that this will pass. But now I'm learning, learning that this will pass.
