PRODIGAL – Casting Crowns
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kengus
 
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
            C#m (x46650)        Asus2
Living on my own, thinking for myself
               E               Bsus4 (x24400)
Castles in the sand, temporary wealth
                      C#m                         Asus2
The walls are falling down, the storms are closing in
                         E                Bsus4
And tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
 
PRE-CHORUS
         C#m         Asus2     E    Bsus4
And I've held out as long as I can
         C#m           Asus2          E     Bsus4
Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
 
CHORUS
C#m               Asus2
   Daddy, here I am again
         E              Bsus4
Will You take me back tonight
C#m                          Asus2
   I went and made the world my friend
        E               Bsus4
And it left me high and dry
  Asus2               C#m
I drag Your name back through the mud
     Bsus4             F#m11 (244200)
That You first found me in
    Asus2        C#m
Not worthy to be called Your son
   Bsus4         F#m11
Is this to be my end
              C#m   Asus2
Daddy, here I am
      E    Bsus4
Here I am again
 
C#m  Asus2  E  Bsus4
 
VERSE2 (with drums, guitar picking in background)
                   C#m
Curse this morning sun
                       Asus2
Drags me in to one more day
                     E
Of reaping what I've sown
                  Bsus4
Of living with my shame
              C#m
Welcome to my world
                        Asus2
And the life that I have made
                       E
Where one day you're a prince
                     Bsus4
The next day you're a slave
 
PRE-CHORUS (same as before)
