A good man gone astray
A good man gone astray
verse
I’m finding I need you more these days;
than I ever did before.
lord i pray you have time to listen.
These days I'm feeling ignored.
pre chorus
I get it your hands are full.
with the world’s insanity.
but if you have a moment
Could you kindly walk with me?
chorus
Show me the way, show me the way.
i’m a good man gone astray.
Show me the way, show me the way.
I’m a good man gone astray.
verse
I’m fighting the need to drink these days.
It’s gotten out of control.
Lord, I pray you have time to listen.
time to help this wayward soul.
pre chorus
I get it your hands are full.
I'm not a priority.
but if you have a moment
Could you kindly talk to me?
chorus
Show me the way, show me the way.
I’m a good man gone astray.
Show me the way, show me the way.
I’m a good man gone astray.
bridge
I’ve strayed from the path of the righteous.
I’ve walked in Satan's shoes.
Done things I know I shouldn’t have done.
I've turned my back on you.
pre chorus
I get it, I’m just one man.
I’m not a priority
but could you show me mercy?
Could you kindly walk with me?
chorus
Show me the way, show me the way.
I’m a good man gone astray.
Show me the way, show me the way.
I’m a good man gone astray.

Hi Carroll,
If ever there was an anthem for some good cause, this is it!
I can imagine some tormented soul singing this to the accompaniment
of a huge gospel choir. Would make the skin tingle.
hallelujah,
Sid

Good write Carroll! Got a modern country feel to it for mine. Easy to imagine this sounding good.
