Shins - Young Pilgrims Chords

[Verse]
A          F      D          A
A cold and wet November dawn
A         F         G        A
and there are no barking sparrows
A    C                   E
just emptiness to dwell upon.

A        F    D           A
I fell into a winter slide
A         F              G                 A
and ended up the kind of kid who goes down chutes too narrow
A    C                   E
just eking out my measly pies.

[Chorus:]
    D         A          E        A
But I learned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
D           A       C       E
 know there is this side of me that
D         A        E             A
 wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just
D        A            C      E
 fly the whole mess into the sea.


[Verses]
A       F          D           A
Another slow train to the coast
A              F             G      A
some brand new gory art from way on high
A C                        E
I sink and then I swim all night.

A           F        D      A
I watch the ice melt on the glass
A         F              G             A
while the eloquent young pilgrims pass
A   C
and leave behind their trail
G                   E
imploring us not to fail.

D  A  E  A
Of course I raised to gather courage from those
D  A  C  E
lofty tales so tried and true and
D  A  E  A
if you're able I'd suggest it 'cause this
D  A  C  E
modern thought can get the best of you.

F#m A
This rather simple epitaph
D  E  D  E/Esus4
can save your hide your falling mind
F#m A
fate isn't what we're up against
D  E  D  E/Esus4
there's no design no flaws to find
D  E  D  E/Esus4
there's no design no flaws to find.

[Chorus]
D  A  E  A
But I learned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
D  A  C  E
know I got this side of me that
D  A  E  A
wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just
D  A  C  E
fly the whole mess into the sea.
