Our World
My Morning Jacket Lyrics
We're closer now than ever before
(How much alike we are, perhaps we are almost brothers)
There's love in our world and we're showing it more
(We even think the same, there may be others)
Our world says, "Welcome stranger", everybody's a friend
(We can always use a friend)
Favorite stories to tell in our world
Some say our world is getting too small
(So many things things learn, but we'll enjoy each lesson)
(Problems don't worry us when half the fun is guessin')
Our world is always changing, every day's a surprise
(Live a lifetime of surprise)
Love can open your eyes in our world
When night lays sad upon you
Go watch the simple sunrise
Love can open your eyes to our world
Some say our world is getting too small
(So many things things learn, but we'll enjoy each lesson)
I say with kindness there's room for us all
(Problems don't worry us when half the fun is guessin')
Our world is always changing, every day's a surprise
(Live a lifetime of surprise)
Love can open your eyes in our world
In our world
In our world

The band's moniker comes from a discarded coat James saw while walking through the remains of his favorite bar the morning after it burned down. The coat had the letters "MMJ" embroided on it. The band has released seven albums so far: "The Tennessee Fire" (1999), "At Dawn" (2001), "It Still Moves" (2003), "Z" (2005), "Evil Urges" (2008), "Circuital" (2011) & "The Waterfall" (2015). The band's breakthrough came when their 2003 single "One Big Holiday" became one of the most played songs on college radio that year. 2008's "I'm Amazed" was also a sizable hit, peaking at #6 on Billboard's Triple A (adult album alternative) Singles chart.
The Circuital songfacts reports that "Circuital" was recorded inside a church’s converted gymnasium in the band's hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. Said frontman Jim James: “I hate the phrase ‘going back to our roots’, but for this record we came home and made it in Kentucky. And it just felt a lot like it did when we were first starting out.”
James co-produced the record with Tucker Martine. The pair first worked together when James appeared on Laura Veirs ' album "July Flame" in 2010, which Martine, Veirs’ husband, also produced.
My Morning Jacket guest stared in the American Dad Episode "My Morning Straitjacket" where Stan Smith becomes obsessed with them and decides to become a groupie. The edisode was first aired November 22 2009.
