The Alchemist
I have been meaning to read 'The Alchemist' by Paul Coelho for many years, and finally purchased a copy last week.
You can read about the book here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Alchemist_(novel)
Unfortunately, the book is not, as I had hoped, a guide to alchemy, and by the end of the book I came to the conclusion that Santiago should have stayed where he was, and this idea of a 'grand legend' that people should pursue in life is just a recipe for disappointment.
Lyrics and chords here:

Paintings of alchemists are from wikimedia. Obviously this has been a popular subject for painters over the past 400 years.
