Swing Lo Magellan [Acoustic Version] (Acoustic Version)

Swing Lo Magellan (Acoustic Version) - Unknown Mortal Orchestra

Last night all my attention

Squinting westward at the sunset

With a map and a compass

When a man reached up said something

There against the sky a ball of light

Too invisible to give itself to the naked eye

On the shore people yelling

In their eyes a great reflection

In the griddle where they're positioned

Unconcerned with intuition

There could never be not a sympathy

From that wilderness

So let it be arrested

Swing low oh magellan

Nine by six or eight by seven

Post a sentinel at the border

Of what you attempt what you ignore

I saw my friend in a pool of light

Drowned in doubt and shame

I knew that I had lost my sight
