Young Pilgrims The Shins
[D]A c[Bb]old [G]and wet November dawn
[D]and[Bb] the[C]re are no barking sparrows
[D]jus[F]t emp[A]tiness to dwell upon.
[D]I f[Bb]ell [G]into a winter slide
[D]and[Bb] end[C]ed up the kind of kid who goes down chutes too narrow
[D]jus[F]t eki[A]ng out my measly pies.
Chorus:
[G]But[D] I [A]lea[D]rned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
[G]kno[D]w t[F]her[A]e is this side of me that
[G]wan[D]ts [A]to [D]grab the yoke from the pilot and just
[G]fly[D] th[F]e w[A]hole mess into the sea.
[D]Ano[Bb]ther[G] slow train to the coast
[D]som[Bb]e br[C]and new gory art from way on high
[D]I s[F]ink a[A]nd then I swim all night.
[D]I w[Bb]atch[G] the ice melt on the glass
[D]whi[Bb]le t[C]he eloquent young pilgrims pass
[D]and[F] leave behind their trail
[C]imp[A]loring us not to fail.
[G]Of [D]cou[A]rse[D] I raised to gather courage from those
[G]lof[D]ty [F]tal[A]es so tried and true and
[G]if [D]you[A]'re[D] able I'd suggest it 'cause this
[G]mod[D]ern[F] th[A]ought can get the best of you.
[Bm]This[D] rather simple epitaph
[G]can[A] sa[G]ve [A/Asus4]your hide your falling mind
[Bm]fate[D] isn't what we're up against
[G]the[A]re'[G]s n[A/Asus4]o design no flaws to find
[G]the[A]re'[G]s n[A/Asus4]o design no flaws to find.
[G]But[D] I [A]lea[D]rned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
[G]kno[D]w I[F] go[A]t this side of me that
[G]wan[D]ts [A]to [D]grab the yoke from the pilot and just
[G]fly[D] th[F]e w[A]hole mess into the sea.
