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"
