Intro:
GCGDEmCGDGVerse 1:
GC
I went the ways of wayward winds
G
In a world of trouble and sin
D
Walked a long and crooked mile
Em
Behind a million rank and file
C
Forgot where I came from
G
Somewhere back when I was young
DG
I was a good man’s child
G
‘Cause I lost some nameless things
C
My innocence flew away from me
GD
She had to hide her face from my desire
Em
To embrace forbidden fire
C
But at night I dream
G
She’s singing over me
DG
Oh, oh, my child
Chorus 1:
GCGD
Come on home, home to me
EmCG
And I will hold you in my arms
DG
And joyful be
GCGD
There will always, always be
EmCGA place for you at my table
DG
Return to me
(Repeat Intro)
Verse 2:
GC
Wondering where I might begin
G
Hear a voice upon the wind
D
She’s singing faint but singing true
Em
Son, there ain’t nothing you can do
C
But listen close and follow me
G
I’ll take you where you’re meant to be
DG
Just don’t lose faith
GC
So I put my hand upon the plow
G
Wipe the sweat up from my brow
D
Plant the good seed along the way
Em
As I look forward to the day
C
When at last I see
G
My Father run to me
DG
Singing oh, my child
Chorus 2 and Outro:
GCGD
Come on home, home to me
EmCG
And I will hold you in my arms
DG
And joyful be
GCGD
There will always, always be
EmCGA place for you at my table
DG
Return to me
GCGD
My Child
