Cory Asbury - Pioneer

Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
C F Am
Miles and miles on a treadmill mind
G C F
I’m 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

[Chorus]
F C
So free me from this fortress, this prison that I’ve made
G E7/G# Am
With my civilized salvation and my picket fence of faith
F C G/B Am7
My eyes on the horizon, I cannot settle here
G F C
How could I die in safety? I was born a pioneer

[Verse 2]
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
Somewherе in me, there’s thе wonder of a child
G C F
And I wonder if I’ll find him in the wild

[Chorus]
F C
So free me from this fortress, this prison that I’ve made
G E7/G# Am
With my civilized salvation and my picket fence of faith
F C G/B Am7
My eyes on the horizon, I cannot settle here
G F C
How could I die in safety? I was born a pioneer

[Instrumental Break]
F C
(x4)

[Chorus]
F C
So free me from this fortress, this prison that I’ve made
G E7/G# Am
With my civilized salvation and my white picket fence of faith
F C G/B Am7
My eyes on the horizon, I cannot settle here
G F C
How could I die in safety? I was born a pioneer
G F C
I will not die in safety, I was born a pioneer
