G                          C
I went the ways of wayward winds  
                          G
In a world of trouble and sin  
                          D
Walked a long and crooked mile  
                          Em
Behind a million rank and file  
                    C
Forgot where I came from  
                            G
Somewhere back when I was young  
        D          G
I was a good man's child  

G
'Cause I lost some nameless things  
   C
My innocence flew away from me  
   G                               D
She had to hide her face from my desire  
                     Em
To embrace forbidden fire  
                      C
But at night I dream  
                       G
She's singing over me  
    D      G
Oh, oh, my child  

        G  C   G       D
Come on home, home to me     
    Em              C         G
And I will hold you in my arms  
    D      G
And joyful be  

           G  C     G      D
There will always, always be  
  Em            C          G
A place for you at my table  
  D       G
Return to me  

( G  C  G  D )
( Em  C  G  D  G) 

G                          C
Wondering where I might begin  
                      G
Hear a voice upon the wind  
                                D
She's singing faint but singing true  
                                 Em
Son, there ain't nothing you can do  
                            C
But listen close and follow me  
                                    G
I'll take you where you're meant to be 
     D          G
Just don't lose faith  

G                          C
So I put my hand upon the plow  
                          G
Wipe the sweat up from my brow  
                              D
Plant the good seed along the way  
                          Em
As I look forward to the day  
                 C
When at last I see  
                    G
My Father run to me  
        D      G
Singing oh, my child  

        G  C   G       D
Come on home, home to me     
    Em              C         G
And I will hold you in my arms  
    D      G
And joyful be  

           G  C     G      D
There will always, always be  
  Em            C          G
A place for you at my table  
  D       G
Return to me  
   G     C  G   D
My Child 
   
( Em  C  G  D  G )

        G  C   G       D
Come on home, home to me     
    Em              C         G
And I will hold you in my arms  
    D      G
And joyful be  

           G  C     G      D
There will always, always be  
  Em            C          G
A place for you at my table  
  C           G
At    my table 
Em  C          G
At    my table 
  D        G
Return to me
