Young Pilgrim

 Note:
__________________________________________________________________
The little riff played over the D chords in the verse is
normally played by a separate guitar from the one that's strumming.

Then on to the Bb and so on.

D Bb G D Bb C D F A
D          Bb    G              D
A cold and wet November dawn
          Bb             C      D
And there are no barking sparrows
     F                   A      D
Just emptiness to dwell upon.
         Bb   G                 D
I fell into a winter slide
          Bb             C                 D
And ended up the kind of kid who goes down chutes too narrow
     F                      A
Just sneaking out my measly pies.
    G         D          A        D
But I learned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
G          D       F       A
Know there is this side of me that
G        D        A             D
Wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just
G       D          F        A
Fly the whole mess into the sea.
D       Bb         G                    D
Another slow train to the coast
               Bb            C          D
Some brand new gory art from way on high
  F                        A            D
I sink and then I swim all night.
            Bb       G                  D
I watch the ice melt on the glass
          Bb             C              D
While the eloquent young pilgrims pass
    F
And leave behind their trail
  C                     A
Imploring us all not to fail.
   G            D        A       D
Of course I was raised to gather courage from those
G     D        F         A
Lofty tales so tried and true, but
G         D   A       D
If you're able I'd suggest it 'cause this
G      D                   F       A
Modern thought can get the best of you.
Bm          D                  G         A          G       A
This rather simple epitaph can save your hide, your falling mind
Bm         D                              G    A        G        A
Fate isn't what we're up against; there's no design, no flaws to find
        G    A        G        A
There's no design, no flaws to find.
