Lyrics & chords

1. [F] I'm coming home. I've done my [Am] time
Now I've [Cm] got to know what [D7] is and is it [Gm] mine
If you received my [Bb] letter telling [Dm] you I'd soon be free
[G7] Then you'll know just what to do [Bbm] if you still want [C7] me
[Bbm] If you still want [C7] me

Chorus: Oh, [F] tie a yellow ribbon 'round the [Am] ole oak tree
It's been [Cm] three long years, do you [D7] still want [Gm] me (Still want me)
If I don't see a [Bb] ribbon 'round the [F] ole [A7] oak [Dm] tree
I'll [F] stay on the bus forget about us put the blame on [D7] me
If I [Gm] don't see a [Bb] yellow ribbon [Gm] 'round the [C7] ole oak [F] tree

2, [F] Bus driver, please look for [Am] me
'Cause I [Cm] couldn't bear to [D7] see what I might [Gm] see
I'm really still in [Bb] prison, and my [Dm] love, she holds the key
A [G7] simple yellow ribbon's what I [Bbm] need to set me [C7] free
I [Bbm] wrote and told her [C7] please

* Now the [Gm] whole damn bus is [Bbm] cheering and I [F] can't believe I [D7] see
A [Gm] hundred yellow [Bbm] ribbons 'round the [Gm] ole [C7] oak [F] tree
