Lightning Bolt album Lyrics and Track Listing by Pearl Jam

Lightning Bolt Lyrics and Track Listing by Pearl Jam

Pearl Jam’s Lightning Bolt is the follow up to 2009’s well received Backspacer album. Like that record, Lightning Bolt is produced by the legendary Brendan O'Brien (Stone Temple Pilots, PJ, RATM, Bruce Springsteen).

Pearl Jam has soundly transitioned from the upstarts of rock (Ten - Vitalogy era) to the more wise and mannered ‘Dads who still know how to rock the heck out’ phase of their career. You could argue this started with Riot Act…

Mind Your Manners lyrics by Pearl Jam

Mind Your Manners lyrics by Pearl Jam

The first single from Pearl Jam's Lightning Bolt album.

Lyrics

I've got an unfortunate feelin'
I've been beaten down
I feel I don't believe
And now the truth is coming out
What they've taken is more than a vow
They've taken your innocence
And then they throw them on a burning fire

All along they're sayin'
Mind your manners

I caught myself believin'
That I needed God
And if it's hard for some
We sure could use it now

Try my patience
My patience tried
This world's no longer good enough
That makes me wanna cry

All along they're sayin'
Mind your manners

Silence save him!

Self-realized and metaphysically redeemed
May not live another life
May not solve a mystery
Right around the corner
Could be bigger than ourselves
We could will it to the sky
Or we could something else

No longer sayin!
Mind your manners!
Always burning

Go to Heaven
That's swell
How do you like it
Living in Hell

Repeat outro lyrics three times.

Lyric, Chords Guitar, Kord Gitar Pearl Jam - Last Kiss :

G

     G                   Em
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
C                        D
The Lord took her away from me.
G                              Em
She's gone to heaven so I've got to be good,
    C                         D
so I can see my baby when I leave this world.

      G                  Em
We were out on a date in my daddy's car,
C                    D     
we hadn't driven very far.
 G               Em
There in road, straight ahead,
C                          D
a car was stalled and the engine was dead.
  G                      Em
I couldn't stop so I swerved to the right,
       C                D
I'll never forget the sound that night.
        G                 Em
The screamin' tires, the burstin' glass,
    C                  D        G
the painful scream that I heard last.

    G                   Em
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
C                        D
The lord took her away from me.
G                              Em
She's gone to heaven so I've got to be good,
     C                         D
so I can see my baby when I leave this world.

      G                       Em
When I woke up the rain was pouring down,
   C                         D
there were people standing all around.
  G                    Em
Something warm was running through my eyes,
C                  D
but somehow I found my baby that night.
    G                              Em
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said:
   C                      D
"Hold me darling just a little while!"
    G                            Em
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss,
    C                      D
I found the love that I knew I would miss.
      G                     Em
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight,
    C                D          G
I lost my love, my life, that night.

    G                   Em
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
C                        D
The lord took her away from me.
G                              Em
She's gone to heaven so I've got to be good,
    C                         D
so I can see my baby when I leave this world.
