Faith Hill - My Wild Frontier
INTRO: C
C
How do I feel, when I feel so alone?
Like a sad armadillo, across this desert I roam
F Am
I've been stripped down bare 'til I break
C
Still the wheel keeps turning
Had me a sweet one, I tell no lie
Summer nights in the cornfields, when the corn gets so high
F Am
We traveled clear across Wichita, heading north
C F C
Leaving civilization
CHORUS 1:
Am Em7/G F C
There were highways to get across
Am G F C G C
And places far from here
F G Em Am
And I was his lonesome prairie
Dm7 G7 F
And he was my wild frontier
C
Harvested peaches in a small border town
Saved all our wages, put ten percent down
F Am
I never thought I'd see the world through a child's eyes
C
Until early December
Then one Calgary morning, still as glass
While my baby lay sleeping, an angel slipped past
F Am
And with one breath said, "I'm taking him back
C F C
To his Father in Heaven"
CHORUS 2:
Am Em7/G F C
Through gravel and ice and new-fallen snow
Am G F C G C
I held him through my tears
F G Em Am
Because I was his lonesome prairie
Dm7 G7 F
And he was my wild frontier
BRIDGE:
Get along, get along, get along
Get along, get along, get along
C F
Oh, oh, oh
Get along, get along, get along
Get along, get along
Dm G
Oh, oh, oh
CHORUS 3:
Am C F C
And sometimes at night, I swear I can hear him
Am G F C G C
Calling out so clear
F G Em Am
He says, "You were my lonesome prairie
Dm7 G7 F
And I'm still your wild frontier"
OUTRO: (# ad lib & fade to end #)

Oh, oh, oh
Get along, get along, get along
Get along, get along, get along
Oh, oh, oh
Get along, get along, get along
Get along, get along, get along
Oh, oh, oh
