Intro chords: D:000705  A?:000605  Bm:020200  G:320000

D    A	    Bm      G
What have I done to get me here?
D A	        Bm      G
Unraveled and undone, I need my father.
Bm          A          G           A
What have I done? I've followed my feet to nowhere.
Bm      A          G                 A              D
Now I'm here! As I ran, I can run no more. Prodigal me

D   A	             Bm      G			D
The mountains to the west, I know they laugh at me.
     A                  Bm        G                 Bm
They know I'm scared to cross and leave this life I lead.
      A        G              A             Bm
Oh my pride! I give you up. A barter for my freedom.
               A        G                A                  D
What will they think as I come stumbling down to join their lives?

D A                  G                        D
I need to cross this mountain and find my way home
  A               G               D
I seek no greater fortune, rescue me
D    A          G                   D
Oh unmerciful divide, be merciful tonight
D    A            G     A	    D
Show me the other side, Prodigal me


verse 2: (chords same as verse 1)

The mountains to the east, they've swallowed my beloved
This house completely incomplete, where is my mortar?
Where did he go? He followed His feet to nowhere.
Please come home! You've done me no wrong.

Each evening I look down that road
I hope and I wait for you.
And my servants they look down that road
We watch and we pray for you!

Master, Master, who's that man stumbling down that road?
Could it be the one? Could it be? Could it be?
Master, Master, it's Your son
Coming home to join our lives!

chorus 2: (same chords as chorus 1)

I'm looking down this mountain, 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 the other side!, Prodigal me

Bm                          A   G       A
Could I be the one? Could I be? Could I be?
Bm      A                  G
Father, Father, we're Your sons
       A                 D
coming home to join Your life.


chorus 3: (same chords as chorus 1)

We've finally crossed this mountain, and found our way home.
There is no greater fortune than Jesus.
Oh, how merciful is our God, who gave His only Son!
Oh, we worship You tonight!
Prodigal me
