[Eb] [Db]
[F] [Gb]
[Bbm]
[Ab]
I [C] sat [Db] down one [Eb] night [Db] in the fast [Ab] lane bound [Gb] for freedom
[Bbm]
In a truck that daddy bought me and mommy and mommy'd save [Eb] for [Gb] school
[Ab] I [Db] laid down all my books and picked [Gb] up the drinkin'
[Bbm] Well I let him down when I gave up a [Ab] lot to hold
And [Gb] on a reckless night just [Db] lookin' for my whiskey
I found [Gb] a Bible mama gave [Db] me and read a while
I read [Gb] a story about a man who [Bbm] lived just like me
[Gb] He finally ate his pride [Ab] and came runnin' home
Lord [Bbm] I'm a renegade, [Gb] a rambler, [Db] I've squandered [Ab] all I've owned
I'm gonna [Bbm] fight and run away, [Gb] I'm a [Db] gambler, can't count [Ab] the lies I've told
And I [Bbm] need redemption, how [Gb] about forgiveness
[Db] And I pray [Ab] for open arms and I'm [Gb] comin' home
Yeah I'm [Ab] comin' home
[Db] Like a modern day prodigal son
[Eb] [Gb] [Bbm]
[Ab]
I had all of my [Db] things packed by [Gb] early morning
[Bbm]

[Db] [Ab]
[Db] Stopped at a [Eb] pay phone to call [Fm] back on [Gb] the mama
And [Bbm] she might not even talk after all [Ab] I've done
[Gb] And the phone rang twice before I got [Db] an answer
Mama [Gb] nearly dropped the phone when she [Db] heard me say
Said, [Ab] Mom [Gb] it's your son and [Bbm] will y'all have me
She [Gb] said, son you know I've longed for [Ab] this day
Lord [Bbm] I'm a renegade, [Gb] a rambler, [Db] I've [Ab] squandered all I've owned
I'm gonna [Bbm] fight and run away, I'm a gambler, [Db] can't count the [Ab] lies I've told
And I [Bbm] need redemption, how [Gb] about forgiveness
[Db] And I pray for [Ab] open arms, can you be [Gb] with me Lord
Oh [Ab] cause I'm comin' home, like a modern day [Bbm] prodigal son
