“Prodigal Me”

Drop D tuning (tune low E to D)

capo 2

D: 0 0 0 2 3 2

Asus: 0 0 2 3 3 0

G5: 5 5 0 0 3 0

Bm: 0 2 4 4 3 2

Dadd9: 0 0 0 7 7 5

A/D: 0 0 0 6 5 5

G7/B: 0 2 0 0 3 0

all the strings are relative to the capo

There aren’t any real defined chorus’ and bridges’ what not so I’ll

give them names myself. The two acoustic guitars strumming 16th’s

opposite each other along with the djembe or conga’s in the background

give a deceiving “very very fast strum pattern.” They both strum fast

but it only sounds impossible. Concentrate

on getting the main rhythm and then throw in the 16th’s... the double

time strumming that is heard. This is my best attempt at a great song

by two great guitar players so it won’t be perfect but it sounds pretty

good.

Verse:Guitar 1 plays D, Asus, G5, Asus

Gutiar 2 plays Dadd9, A/D, G7/B, A/D

Bridge: Both guitar’s play Bm, Asus x2

the chorus and verse are interchangable so it won’t confuse you they

just have different lyrics.

verse:

What have I done? To get me here, Unraveled an undone I need my father

bridge:

What have I done? I followed my feet to nowhere. Now I’m here As I

ran I can run no more.... Prodigal Me

chorus:

The mountains to the west, I hear them laugh at me

They know I’m scared to cross and leave this life I lead

bridge:

Oh my pride I give you up a barter for my freedom

What will they think as I come stumbling down

To join their lives

chorus:

I need to cross this mountian and find my way home

I seek no greater fortune, rescue me

Oh unmerciful divide be merciful tongiht

Oh show me the other side... Prodigal Me

verse:

The mountains to the east, they’ve swallowed my beloved This is is

mostly incomplete, where is my mortar?

bridge:

Where did he go? He followed his feet to nowhere

Please come home, you’ve done me no wrong

verse:

Each evening I look down that road and I hope and I wait for you

And my servants they look down the road

And we watch and we pray for you

bridge:

Master, Master who’s that man stumbling down our road?

Could it be the one? Could it be the one? Could it be could it be

Master, Master it’s Your son!!! Coming home to join our lives

chorus:

I’m looking down this mountain and I see my way home There is no

greater fortune...I believe

Oh unmerciful divide you laugh at me no more

Oh I’ve reached the other side... Prodigal Me

bridge:

Could I be the one? Could I be the one? Could I be could I be

Father, Father we’re your sons coming home to join your Life

chorus:

We’ve finally crossed this mountain and found our way Home We seek

no greater fortune...than Jesus

Oh how merciful is our God who gave His only Son

Oh we worship You tonight

Prodigal Me
