Young Pilgrims Chords

[Intro]
| D     | Bb G  |
| D     | Bb C  |
| D     | F     | A7    |
 
 
[Verse 1]
D            Bb     G
  A cold and wet November dawn
D            Bb         C
  And there are no barking sparrows
D      F                   A7
  Just emptiness to dwell upon
 
D          Bb    G
  I fell into a winter slide
D           Bb              C                 D
  And ended up the kind of kid who goes down chutes too narrow
     F                   A7
Just eking out my measly pies
 
 
[Chorus 1]
    G         D          A        D
But I learned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
G            D       F       A7
  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        A7
  Fly the whole mess into the sea
 
 
[Verse 2]
D         Bb         G
  Another slow train to the coast
D                Bb            C      D
  Some brand new gory art from way on high
  F                        A7
I sink and then I swim all night
 
D             Bb       G
  I watch the ice melt on the glass
D            Bb            C
  While the eloquent young pilgrims pass
D     F
  And leave behind their trail
   C                    A7
Imploring us all not to fail
 
 
[Chorus 2]
   G            D        A       D
Of course I was raised to gather courage from those
G       D        F         A7
  Lofty tales so tried and true and
G           D   A       D
  If you're able I'd suggest it 'cause this
G        D                   F        A7
  Modern thought can get the best of you
 
 
[Bridge]
Bm             D
   This rather simple epitaph
    G         A          G       A    Asus4
Can save your hide, your falling mind
Bm             D
   Fate isn't what we're up against
        G    A        G        A    Asus4
There's no design, no flaws to find
        G    A        G        A    Asus4
There's no design, no flaws to find

  Wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just
G         D            F       A7    D
  Fly the whole mess into the sea
