Glen Campbell – The Wayward Son (Guitar)

F#              C#     
He was born far away from home

     D#m                  B
In a troubled place, in a distant land.

       C#                       Bbm
He was guided by a reason as he searched for the truth

G#m                    Bbm          B
Questioning life as he tried to understand

     C#          E   F#
Just who he was.

             C#
Discipled by philosophy.

  D#m                  B
A dead end street with no way through

C#                        Bbm
Trusting education as the key to his soul

        G#m                 Bbm     B
But the room that it opened held no clue

   C#           E  
To who he was.

        D#m               B
And the Wayward Son kept looking.

      C#               F#
For a path to lead him home.

  D#m         B          C#
A new age revelation, to give him hope.

        D#m              B
And the Wayward Son kept learning.

        C#           F#
But the wisdom never came.

       E
And he searched for years to find out

D#m    F#    D#m  E  F#  C#  F#
Who he was.

                C#
At forty he was born again.

     D#m                  B
In a peaceful place, in a familiar land.

C#                       Bbm
Sheltered by a grace God revealed His truth.

    G#m           Bbm           B
And day by day he grew to comprehend

         C#       E   F#
Just who he was.

                   C#
Refashioned by the hand of love

       D#m             B
In the image of, God's only son.

       C#                           Bbm
He was freed from the fall with the curse in 

   G#m                 Bbm
In Christ he found the essence

B           C#       E   
Of just who he was.

        D#m                 B
And the Wayward Son stopped looking.

      C#               F#
For a path to lead him home.

   D#m             B           C#
He received a revelation, that gave him hope.

        D#m                 B
And the Wayward Son stopped yearning.

        C#            F#
For the wisdom of the wind.

    E
And he began to find out

B           F#  D#m   E   F#
Who he was.           Ohh who he was.

     D#m             B
As a newborn son I'm walking.

       C#                 F#
On the path that leads me home.

             D#m           B      C#
You know the spirit's revelation, gives me hope.

     D#m             B
As a newborn son I'm growing.

       C#              F#
In the wisdom of God's plan.

       E              B
I must lose myself to find out,

      F#
Who I am.

                                B
      (I'm no longer longer the Wayward Son)

                                            F#       C#
                                   Whoaaa   who I am

       F#                D#m       E       F#   C#  F#
I'm no longer longer no longer the Wayward Son

       F#                D#m       E       F#   C#  F#
I'm no longer longer no longer the Wayward Son

       F#                D#m       E       F#   C#  F#
I'm no longer longer no longer the Wayward Son
