C#m                     E
I still watch you when you're groovin'
A                             G#         F#m
As if through water from the bottom of a pool
                  A
You're moving without moving
      E            C#m
And when you move, I'm moved

You are a call to motion
There, all of you a verb in perfect view
Like Jonah on the ocean
When you move, I'm moved

          A
When you move
           F#m                 C#m
I'm put to mind of all that I wanna be
          A
When you move
                F#m                E      B
I could never define all that you are to me

Chorus:
   C#          C#/F
So move me, baby
               F#m                F#m/A
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
C#m/G#     E
You do it naturally
B  E C#m
Move    me, baby

You are the rite of movement
Its reasonin' made lucid and cool
I know it's no improvement
When you move, I move
You're S. Polunin leapin'
Or Fred Astaire in sequence
Honey, you, you're Atlas in his sleepin'
And when you move, I'm moved

When you move
I can recall somethin' that's gone from me
When you move
Honey, I'm put in awe of somethin'
so flawed and free

Chorus:
So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Like you've nothin' left to prove
And nothin' to lose
Move me, baby

C#m  G#/C E/B F#/A#A
Ooh, ooh, ooh  ooh
             B
Oh baby, oh baby
C#m        G#/C
Move like grey skies
E/B                  F#/A#  A
Move like a bird of paradise
                             B
Move like an odd sight come out at night

Chorus:
Move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Like you've nothin' left to lose
And nothin' to prove
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
