Young Pilgrims

Shins

 BmFABm
 A cold and wet November dawn                
 FABm
and there are no barking sparrows                  
 FA
just emptiness to dwell upon.      
 BmFABm
 I fell into a winter slide      
 FABm
and ended up the kind of kid who goes down chutes too narrow      
 FA
just eking out my measly pipe.         
 GDADG
But I learned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I                     
 DFAG
know there is this side of me that              
 DADG
wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just                   
 DFA
fly the whole mess into the sea.            
 BmFABm
 Another slow train to the coast           
 FABm
some brand new gory art from way on high                  
 FA
sink and then I swim all night.     
 BmFABm
 I watch the ice melt on the glass            
 FABm
while the eloquent young pilgrims pass                  
 FC
and leave behind their trail           
 A
imploring us all not to fail.     
 GDADG
 Of course I was raised to gather courage from those                    
 DFAG
lofty tales so tried and true           
 DADG
if you're able, I'd suggest it 'cause this           
 DFA
modern thought can get the best of you.                 
 BmDGFCA
 This rather simple epitaph can save your hide, your falling mind                
 BmDGFCA
 fate isn't what we're up against there's no design, no flaws to find                 
 GFCA
there's no design, no flaws to find.      
 GDADG
But I learned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I                   
 DFA
know I got this side of me that  
 GDADG
 wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just                 
 DFA
fly the whole mess into the sea.
