My Wild Frontier Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Csus2][Gsus4][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]How do I feel? Well,
I feel so alone
Like a sad armadillo across
this desert I roam
I've been [F]stripped down,
bare, 'til I [Am]break
Still the wheel keeps [C]turn[G]ing[C]

[Verse 2]
[C]Had me a sweet one, I tell no lie
Summer nights in the cornfields
When the corn gets so high
We traveled [F]clear across Wichita,
head[Am]in' north
Leavin' [F]civil[C] iz[F]ation

[Verse 3]
[C]And the[G]re were hig[Am]h
[G]ways to [F]get [C]across
And [Am]places [F]far from [C]here[G][C]
[F]An d I was his [G]lonesome [Em]prair[Am] ie
And [Dm]he was my wi[Gsus4]ld
[F]fro[Gsus4]ntier

[Verse 4]
[C]Harvested peaches in a
small border town
Saved all our wages
Put ten percent down
I never [F]thought I'd see the world
through [Am]a child's eyes
Until [Gsus4]early December
[C]

[Verse 5]
Then one Calgary morning
Still as glass
While my baby lay sleeping,
an angel slipped past
And with one [F]breath said
I'm taking him [Am]back
To his [G]Father in [C]Heaven[F]

[Verse 6]
[C]Thr[G]ough gravel[Am] and
[G]ice and [F]new fallen [C]snow
I [Am]held him [F]through my [Gsus4]tears
[G]Becau[Em]se I w[F]as his
[G]lonesome [Em]prair[Am]ie
And [Dm]he was my wi[Gsus4]ld frontier
[F]

[Verse 7]
Get along, get along, get along
[C]Get along, get along, get along
[G]Oh, oh, oh
[F]Get along, get along, get along
Get along, get along, get along
Oh, oh, oh
[Dm]

[Verse 8]
[Gsus4][G]
And [Am]sometimes [G]at night
[F]I swear [C]I can hear him
[Am]Calling [F]out so [Gsus4]clear[C]
[G]He say[Em]s, "Yo[F]u were my
[G]lonesome [Em]prair[Am]ie
An[Dm]d I'm still [Gsus4]your wild fronti e[F]r "[C][F]

[Verse 9]
[F]Get [G]alo[Am]ng,[F][Am]
[F]get[C] along,[F] get along
Get along, get along, [C]get along
[F]Oh, oh, oh
Get along, get along, [C]get along
Get along, get along, get [F]along
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 10]
[F]Babe, I miss [F]you
