The Prodigal Son Chords by Hank Williams

_ _ _ A _ prodigal _ son _ [A] wants straight from [E] his father _ _ _ _ _
To travel a land _ of hunger and [B] pain _
_ And _ _ [E] now I can see _ the [A] end of my [E] journey _ _ _ _ _
I'm going [B] to heaven _ [E] again
_ _ _ I'll leave you the day _ _ _ [A] to help all [E] your neighbors
_ _ _ I'll leave you the _ night [F#] to solemnly [B] pray
_ _ So try to repent _ _ _ and [A] ask for [E] forgiveness _ _ _ _
_ _ We'll meet up [B] in heaven _ [E] someday _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Goodbye to this world _ _ with [A] all of [E] its _ sorrows _ _ _ _
Goodbye to the _ _ fields that I used [B] to roam _
_ _ _ For [E] I'm going _ _ away _ where [A] life is [E] eternal
_ _ My _ _ _ shepherd [B] is calling [E] me home
From _ _ _ _ out of the sky _ _ _ [A] he's coming to [E] meet me
_ To _ _ _ wash all my sins _ _ and call me [B] his own _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] His servants will bring _ _ [A] a ring for [E] my finger _ _ _ _
_ And never no [B] more will [E] I roam _ _ _ _ _
_ And now I must go _ _ _ [A] back home to [E] my maker _ _ _ _ _ _
Where kindness and _ love will make us [B] as one _ _ _ _
_ _ So [E] try to be _ strong _ [A] if you're ever [E] tempted _ _ _ _ _ _
Just remember [B] the _ _ _ prodigal son _ _ _
Thank you Hank Yes sir _ _ _
