PRODIGAL – Casting Crowns
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kengus
Ok, so this isn't dead on (at least not the intro), but sounds close
and good enough when playing the chords. The guitar is picking the whole
song through I think, but these chords work just as well. See what you
think. It could be in another tuning as well, may be half step down?
Standard tuning
INTRO, something like this
