[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I've gone [G]so
far from my home
I've seen the world and I
have [C]known
So many [Am]secrets[C]
I wish now I [F]did not [D]know[G]
'Cause they have crept into my heart
They have left it cold and [C]dark
And bleed[Am]ing,[C]
Bleeding and [F]falling apart
[D][CHORUS:] And every

[Verse 2]
[G]
body used to tell me
big [C]boys don't cry
Well I've [G]been around enough
to know [C]that that was the lie
[Em]That held back the tears in the eyes
of a [C]thousand prodigal [D]sons
Well we are [G]children no more,
we [C]have sinned and grown old
And our [G]Father still waits and [C]He
watches down the road
To see the [Em]crying boys come run
[C]ning back to [D]His arms
And be grow[G]ing [C]young
Growing [G]young[C][G]
I've seen [C]silver turn to [G]dross
Seen the [Bm]very best there ever [C]was
And I'll [Am]tell you,
[C]it ain't wor[F]th what it cos[D]ts
[G]And I rem[C]ember my father's hou[G]se
What I would[Bm]n't give right n[C]ow
Just [Am]to see [C]him and hear him tell me that he [F]loves me so [D]much[G]
[C]

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][Em][C][D][G]
[C][G][C][Em][C][D][C]

[Verse 3]
[CHORUS:] And when I [C]thought
that I was all [Bm]alone
It was your voice I heard
calling me back [C]home
And I [Em]won der now [C]Lord
What it was that made me [F]wait so [D]long
And what kept You wait[C]ing
for me all that [Bm]time
Was Your love stronger
than my foolish [C]pride
Will You [Em]take me back now,
[C]take me back and let me be [F]Your chi[D]ld[G]
'Cause I've been [C]broken now,
I've been [G]saved
I've learned to cry,
and I've learned how to [C]pray
And I'm learn[Am]ing, [C]I'm learning even I c[F]an be chan[D]ged
[G]
