Prodigal Me 
Shane Barnard 
off the album Rocks Won't Cry 

Shane and Shane are the coolest independent band. maybe not
the coolest but they're up there. They are awesome and if
anyone knows anything else, post it! Shane B. uses a partial
capo on the second fret and plays some really weird chords and
notes. There's no way I'll figure that out. If anyone does,
email me. I think Shane E. just plays the straight up chords
in this song, but I really can't remember from the concert. So
if anyone has corrections please email me. also, strum really
fast!!!!!!!!! I apologize to Shane because I probably
butchered the song. 

So here it is: 

E-B-A-B 

E     B      A       B         E 
What have I done to get me here? 
   B         A        B 
Unraveled and undone 
            C#m 
I need my father 
             B 
What have I done? 
 A            B             C#m 
Followed my feet to nowhere 
       B           A               B 
Now I'm here as I ran I can run no more 
        E   B-A-B 
Prodigal me 
  

the verses are the same 
The mountains to the west, I hear them laugh at me. 
They know I'm scared to cross and leave this life I live. 
Oh my pride! I give you up a barter for my freedom. 
What will they think as I come stumbling down to join their
lives? 

Chorus: 

E   B                A             B           E 
I need to cross this mountain and find my way home 
   B                A       B 
I seek no greater fortune, rescue me 
E     B         A         B                E 
Oh unmerciful divide, be merciful tonight 
     B             A   B             E 
Show me the other side, prodigal me. 

Verse: 
The mountains to the east, they've swallowed my beloved 
This house completely incomplete, where is my mortar? 
Where did he go? Followed his feet to nowhere. 
Please come home! You've done me no wrong. 

Each evening I look down that road I hope and I wait for you 
And my servants they look down that road and 
we watch and we pray for you 

(c#m-B-A-B riff until chorus) 

master, master, who's that man stumbling down that road? 
Could it be the one? Could it be the one? Could it be? Could
it be? 
Master, master, it's your son, coming home to join our lives! 

chorus: 

I'm looking down this mountain  I see my way home 
There is no greater fortune, I believe! 
OH unmerciful divide laugh at me no more 
Oh I've reached the other side! Prodigal me 

(C#m. . . riff) 
Could I be the one? Could I be the one? Could I be? Could I
be? 

Chorus: 

We've finally crossed this mountain, and found our way home. 
There is no greater fortune than Jesus. 
Oh how merciful is our God who gave His only Son 
Oh we worship you tonight, Prodigal me.
