Pilgrims Progress Procol Harum
"Pilgrims Progress"
(Matthew Fisher - Keith Reid)
Verse 1:
[(D)] I sat me do[G]wn to wr[Bm]ite a simple st[Em]ory[/D]
Which m[C]aybe in the [G/B]end became a [Am7]song[/G]
In t[D/F#]rying to [Dm/F]find the [C/E]words which might [Ebdim]begin it
I f[Em]ound these were the th[Am]oughts I'd brought al[C]ong[D]
Verse 2:
At first I sought to be an anchor
I gathered up my fears to ride me round
But then I clearly saw my own delusion
And found my struggles further brought me down
Verse 3:
In starting out I thought to go exploring
And set my foot upon the nearest road
In vain I looked to find the promised turning
But only saw how far I was from home
Bridge:
In s[D]earching I for[D7/C]sook the paths of l[G/B]earning[C] [G/B] [C] [G/B]
A[D]nd sought in[D7/C]stead to find some [G/B]pirate's gold[C] [G/B] [C] [G/B]
In f[D]ighting I did [D7/C]hurt those dearest[G/B] to me[C] [G/B] [C] [G/B]
S[C]till no hidden [G/B]truths could I u[Am7]nfold[Am7/G]
Instrumental break:
organ solo (chord progression as per last two lines of verse)
Verse 4:
I sat me down to write a simple story
Which maybe in the end became a song
The words have all been read by one before me
We're taking turns in trying to pass them on
B7/D# Em Am7 Am7/D G (N.C.)
Oh, we're taking turns in trying to pass them on
Coda:
