PROCOL HARUM - PILGRIM'S PROGRESS (Fisher/Reid)
 
 -------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by:PJVillanueva
[1]  
I sat me [G]down to [Bm]write a simple s[Em]tory[Em7]
which [C]maybe in the [G]end became a [Am7]song[Am6] [Am] [D]
In trying to [F]find the wor[Cadd9]ds which [C]might beg[B-9]in it[B7]
I [Em]found [Emadd9]these we[Em]re the [Am]thoughts I brought al[C6]ong[Cmaj13] [C6] [C] [D]
[2]  
At first I [G]took my [Bm]weight to be an a[Em]nchor [Em7]
and [C]gathered up my [G]fears to guide me [Am7]roun[Am6]d[Am] [D]
but then I [F]clearly [Cadd9]saw my [C]own de[B-9]lusion[B7]
and [Em]found my [Emsus4]struggl[Em]es [Am]further bogged me do[C6]wn[Cmaj13] [C6] [C] [D]
[3]  
In starting ou[G]t I [Bm]thought to go expl[Em]oring[Em7]
and [C]set my foot up[G]on the nearest [Am7]road[Am6] [Am] [D]
In vain I [F]looked to [Cadd9]find the [C]promised [B-9]turning[B7]
but [Em]only[Emsus4] saw ho[Em]w f[Am]ar I was from hom[C6]e[Cmaj13] [C6] [C] [D] [C] [G]
Middle eight
In [D]searching I [D/C]forsook the paths of le[G]arning [C] [G] [C] [G]
and[D] sought instead to [D/C]find some pirate's go[G]ld [C] [G] [C] [G]
In [D]fighting I did [D/C]hurt those dearest to[G] me [C] [G] [C] [G]
and [C]still no hidden [G]truths could I un[AM]fold[D] [F] [Cadd9] [C] [B-9] [B7]
[Em] [Emsus4] [Em] [Am] [D] 
[4]  
I sat me do[G]wn to [Bm]write a simple sto[Em]ry[Em7]
which [C]maybe in [G]the end became a [Am7]song[Am6] [Am] [D]
The words have [F]all been [Cadd9]writ by [C]one be[B-9]fore me[B7]
We're [Em]taking[Emsus4] turns [Em]in [Am]trying to pass them on[D]
O[B7/F#]h, we'r[Emsus4]e takin[Em]g turns in [Am]trying to [C]pass them on[G]
