Pioneer chords by Asbury Cory

• Capo on 3rd

🎸 Intro:

C

🎸 Verse:
            C           F         Am
Miles and miles on a treadmill mind
  G                C         F
Running but not going anywhere
               C              F        Am
I closed the blinds on the frontier life
    G                 C                F
I dressed it up as freedom but it's fear
      G              C                 F
Lost sight of who I am and why I'm here

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
    F
So free me from this fortress
       C
This prison that I've made
         G                  E7
With my civilized salvation
        Am
And my picket fence of faith

🎸 Chorus:
    F
My eyes on the horizon
    C             Am
I cannot settle here
      G
How could I die in safety?
       F           C
I was born a pioneer





🎸 Verse:
             C       F              Am
And letting go, I leave it all behind
      G                  C               F
I'm parting ways with years of wasted time
            C            F          Am
I'm moving out of this old man's house
           G                   C            F
Somewhere in me there's the wonder of a child
        G               C                F
And I wonder if I'll find him in the wild

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
    F
So free me from this fortress
       C
This prison that I've made
         G                  E7
With my civilized salvation
        Am
And my picket fence of faith

🎸 Chorus:
    F
My eyes on the horizon
    C             Am
I cannot settle here
      G
How could I die in safety?
       F           C
I was born a pioneer

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
    F
So free me from this fortress
       C
This prison that I've made
         G                   E7
With my civilized salvation
              Am
And my white picket fence of faith

🎸 Chorus:
    F
My eyes on the horizon
    C             Am
I cannot settle here
      G
How could I die in safety?
       F           C
I was born a pioneer

🎸 Outro:
    G
I will not die in safety
       F          C
I was born a pioneer
