      [Verse 1]
Em               G
The sun comes up alone
                     D
Like a funeral for my home
                     A
Like a mirror for my soul
                             Em
But I should've known better
                            G
I was feeling like skin and bones
                           D
I kept chasing after these ghosts
                          A
I kept giving up on these hopes when I found Your letter

[Pre-Chorus]
G                    Bm
I am Yours and Yours alone
                  D               A
Forgive me for my wandering on my own

[Chorus]
               Em    G
I'm a prodigal soul
                  D     A
And I want to come home
                 Em   G/F# G
I can't make it alone
                         Em7 D
Won't You bring me home?


[Verse 2]
Em                         G
Tried to start on something new
                        D
Tried to blame myself on You
                           A
But my nightmares all came true
                   Em
I felt so unsteady
                                      G/F# G
I still see Your face when I close my eyes and
                                          D
I think about You wide awake at night and
                              A
How far do I have to go to realize what I know already

[Pre-Chorus]
G                     Bm
I am Yours and Yours alone
                  D               A
Forgive me for my wandering on my own

[Chorus]
              Em   G
I'm a prodigal soul
                  D    A
And I want to come home
                 Em   G/F# G
I can't make it alone
                         A
Won't you bring me home?

[Bridge]
A                 Em
I was running on empty
                G
I was feeling so low
                  D
When You made me a promise
                   A
To never let me go
                 Em
I was falling to pieces
                   G
When You carried me home
                      D
When You told me you loved me
                Em    G
And my prodigal soul
                  D      A
And I want to come home
                  Em  G
I can't make it alone
                  Em    C
And I want to come home
                     G     A
Yeah, I want to come home

[Outro]
              Em    G
I'm a prodigal soul
                     D    A
Yeah, but I'm coming home
                      Em                  G
I can't make, I can't make it alone, yeah
                  D     A
And I want to come home, yeah
      Em
In my dreams, all is forgiven
      G
In my dreams, I'm by Your side
           D
But when I wake up something's missing
         A                       Em
Can You free me from my prodigal soul?
G/F# G                        Em7 D
Yeah, won't You bring me home?
