I'm (A5) walking towards the light
Chorus 1
(E5) Baptized in the (Csus2) river
I've seen a (G5) vision of my life
and I (E minor/A) want to be delivered

I've done a (G5) lot of things wrong,
but I (E minor/A) swear I'm a believer
(E5) Like the prodigal son, (E minor/G)
I was out on my own (G5)
Now I'm trying to find (E minor/A) my way back home (E5)

Verse 2
You're from a (E5) small town,
you're gonna (E5) grow up fast
(G5) Under (D/F#) neath these lights (E5)
Down in (E5) Hollywood on the
(E5) boulevard, the (G5) dead come (D/F#) back to life
(E5)
To the praying Mother
and the (E5) worried Father
(G5) Let your children (D/F#) go (E5)
If they come back, they'll (E5) come home stronger
And (G5) if they don't (D/F#) you'll know (E5)
