PRODIGAL – Casting Crowns
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, so this isn't dead on (at least not the intro), but sounds close
and good enough when playing the chords. The guitar is picking the whole
song through I think, but these chords work just as well. See what you
think. It could be in another tuning as well, may be half step down?
Standard tuning
INTRO, something like this

VERSE1
(x46650)
Living on my own, thinking for myself
(x24400)
Castles in the sand, temporary wealth
The walls are falling down, the storms are closing in
And tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
PRE-CHORUS
And I've held out as long as I can
Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
CHORUS
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
Bsus4 F#m11 (244200)
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
F#m11
Is this to be my end
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
VERSE2 (with drums, guitar picking in background)
Curse this morning sun
Drags me in to one more day
Of reaping what I've sown
Of living with my shame
Welcome to my world
And the life that I have made
Where one day you're a prince
The next day you're a slave
PRE-CHORUS (same as before)
CHORUS
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
fade out
