[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 #) C F 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
