Chords for Rich Mullins - Growing Young (Live in Holland, 1994)

This is a song that Beaker and I wrote.
It was one of the easiest songs we ever wrote because we started playing around and the next thing we knew it was done. _ _
Because [A] it's kind of our testimony.
It's also the story of the _ _ prodigal son, I think is the name of the story.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I've gone so far from my home
I've seen [C#m] the world and I have [D] _ _
so many [Bm] secrets
_ [D] Wish _ now I [G] did not [E] know
_ [A] _
They have crept into my heart
[C#m] They have left it [A] cold and dark
And [Bm] bleeding, _ _ [D] _ _
bleeding and [G] falling apart
[A] And everybody used to tell me big boys don't cry
Well I've been around enough to know that there was _ _ [F#] a lack of tears in the [A] eyes of a thousand [E] prodigal sons
Well [A] we are children no more, we have sinned and grown old
And our father still waits and is watching down the road
[F#] To see the crying boys come [A] running back to [E] his arms
_ We're _ [A] growing young, _ _ growing young
I've _ _ _ _ _ _ _ seen silver turn to dross
I've [C#m] seen the very best [D] there ever was
And [Bm] I'll tell you, [D] it _ _ [G] ain't worth what [E] it [A] costs
I'll _ remember my father's house
What I [C#m] wouldn't give right now _ just [F#m] to see him
[D] Hear him tell me [G] that he loves [E] me somehow
[A] And everybody used to tell me big boys don't cry
Well I've been around enough to know that there was a lack [F#] of tears in the [D] eyes of a thousand prodigal [E] sons
Well [A] we are children no more, we have sinned and grown old
And our father still waits and is watching down the road
[F#m] To see the crying boys come [D] running back to [E] his arms _
_ _ _ [A] Growing young, growing _ _ _ young _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ When [D] I thought _ _ _ [C#m] _ it was your voice I heard calling me [A] back home
And [F#m] I wonder now [Bm] Lord, what was it [G] made me wait [E] so long
_ _ [A] Why kept you waiting _ [C#m] that time, you said you're stronger than my [D] foolish pride
Will [F#m] you take me back now, [Bm] _ take me back and [G] let me be [E] your [A] child
Cause I've been broken now, _ [A] I've been saved
I've learned [C#m] to cry and I've learned how [D] to pray
And [Bm] I'm learning, _ _ [D] _ _ learning [G] even I could [E] be changed
And [A] everybody used to tell me big boys don't cry
Well I've been around enough to know that there was a lack [F#m] of tears in the [A] eyes of a thousand _ [E] prodigal sons
Well [A] we are children no more, we have sinned and grown old
And our father still waits and is watching down the road
[F#m] To see the crying boys come [D] running back to [E] his arms _ _ _ _
[A] Growing young, _ growing _ _ young
_ Growing _ _ _ _ young
Thank you, [B] good night
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
