Uriah Heep – Pilgrim (Guitar)

  Cm/G                   Cm/G
A pilgrim at the gray of dawn

Cm/G                   Cm/G
Leaving in the mist of morning

Cm/G              G
On his journey of goodness

Cm/G         G
Heaven sent, God blessed

Dm/A                    Dm/A
Pilgrim laughing at the world

Dm/A                 Dm/A
Spreading joy at the touch of his hand

Dm/A               A
Wiping out all the misery

Dm/A            A
Making love and history

Cm/G            G
Those of us who don't know war

Cm/G                F
We shouldn't try to make it

Cm/G            G
So many did and even more died

Cm/G                   F
Do you think you could take it?

Dm/A                 A
Love lies waiting at my back door

Dm/A             G
Such a beautiful matter of fact

Dm/A                      A
Life's like an apple with love as the core

Dm/A                    G   F  E  G  A5
And I'll tell you ‘bout that

E5  G5 A5  B5 G5 A5    B5   G5  F5          G5  F5 E5
Just a man in my prime love was there but I had no time

  G5  A5      B5 G5 A5       B5 G5     F5        G5 F5  E5
I was cheered and adored and I thought fame was all the world

   G5   A5      B5  G5  A5     B5   G5  F5         G5    F5  E5
Battles won and victory cheers were the sounds I'd heard for years

    G5  A5      B5 G5  A5        B5 G5  F5    G5  F5   E5
But the women I really loved was losing me to all this blood

  G5   A5     B5  G5 A5      B5   G5 F5         G5  F5 E5
I only knew I had to win and build a world where I was king

       G5   A5       B5  G5  A5     B5    G5   F5      G5  F5  E5
But leaders come and leaders go and that's the truth I came to know

    G5  A5    B5   G5  A5     B5  G5 F5     G5  F5 E5
Love or war I couldn't choose and so both I had to lose
