The Pilgrim Sam Roberts
Chorded by: Pete Daley
Capo 2
[D]I'm a pilgrim like you
I was only passing [F#m]through
[D]You'll never know my name
You'll never walk in my [F#m]shoes[G]
[D]I've been no use to my friends
I've been no use to [A]myself
Now I'm [D]looking for [G]proof that I [F#m]ain't someone [D]else
[D]I was too afraid to read the [G]newspaper
[D]Working in the basement of a [G]skyscr*per
[D]That's why I roll and you'll never know my [G]name
Oh [D]no
[D]I'm not here to feel the bones of some forgotten [F#m]saint
[D]I know who I am, and I know who you [F#m]ain't[G]
[D]Spent fifteen days in solitary conf[A]inement
Digging a [G]hole in the [D]wall
[D]There's no escape, they said you need rea[A]lignment
Now you're [D]praying for [G]help but they [F#m]don't hear you [D]call
[D]I was too afraid to read the [G]newspaper
[D]Working in the basement of a [G]skyscr*per
[D]That's why I roll and you'll never know my [G]name
Oh [D]no
Chorus
[D]Destination, [G]I don't [D]care
[D]I know I'll [G]get there when I'm [D]there
There's only one thing on my [G]mind
I've got more troubles than a diamond's got [D]shine
[D]My shoes have kicked up dust from here to somewhere [F#m]else
[D]Is this wanderlust or running from [F#m]myself?[G]
[D]My neck was in the noose, but now I've been cut [A]loose
[D]And put out to graze in delicate [A]pastures
Now I'm [D]waiting for [G]someone to [F#m]put me to [D]use
[D]I hope it's clear as crystal[G]
[D]That the man with the pistol
Is [G]calling all the [D]shots these days
Now I'll be on my [G]way, oh[D]
The self-fulfilling prophets[G]
[D]They been lining their pockets
And [G]telling me that [D]it's alright
But I just don't [G]buy it
Oh [D]no
[D]Destination, [G]I don't [D]care
[D]I know I'll [G]get there when I'm [D]there
There's only one thing on my [G]mind
I've got more troubles than a diamond's got [D]shine
[D]Destination, [G]I don't [D]care
[D]I know I'll [G]get there when I'm [D]there
There's only one thing on my [G]mind
I've got more troubles than a diamond's got [D]shine
