Capo on 1st fret
 
C FI set out one night in the fast lane bound for freedom
Amin a truck that daddy bought me
Gand money mom had saved for school
 
C FI laid down all my books and picked up the drinking
Amhell I let 'em down
Gwhen i gave up like a fool
 
F Cand one reckless night just lookin' for my whiskey
F GI found a bible mama gave me and read a while
F AmI read a story 'bout a man who lived just like me
C Gthen finally ate his pride and came runnin' home
 
Am Flord I'm a renegade, a rambler
C GI've squandered all I've owned
Am Fa bonified runaway, I'm a gambler
C Gcan't count the lies I've told
Amand I need redemption, how 'bout forgiveness
C G Fand I pray for open arms
G Am'cause I'm comin' home, like a modern day prodigal son
 
C FI had all of my things packed by early mornin'
Am GI left that bottle I'd lost right there on the bathroom floor
C FI stopped at a payphone and called back home to mama
Am Gyeh she might not even talk after all I've done
 
F Cthe phone rang twice before I got an answer
F Gand mama nearly dropped the phone when she heard me say
F AmI said mama it's your son and will yall have me
C Gshe said son you know I've longed for this day
 
 
Am Flord I'm a renegade, a rambler
C GI've squandered all I've owned
Am Fa bonified runaway, I'm a gambler
C Gcan't count the lies I've told
Amand I need redemption, how 'bout forgiveness
C G Fand I pray for open arms, and be with me lord
G Am'cause I'm comin' home, like a modern day prodigal son
