INTRO: |C///|////|Em///|////|Dm///|////|G///|////|

C                             Em
I'm comin' home, I've done my time,
         Gm               A7            Dm
now I've got to know what is and isn't mine.
                   Fm             C                Am
If you received my letter tellin' you I'd soon be free, 
D7                               Fm6               G7
then you'll know just what to do if you still want me,
Fm6               G7
if you still want me.

it's been three long years, do you still want me?
                Fm                 C   E  Am
If I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree,
      C 
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us.
Am               A      
Put the blame on me.

Am///|Dm///|G7///       
If I don't see a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree.  2nd x: skip to
musical break

2nd verse:

Bus driver please look for me,
cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see.
I'm really still in prison and my love she holds the key-
a simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free,
I wrote and told her please.

Chorus
                                                          Slow down...

         Dm7              Fm6            C              A9 (or A7)
Now the whole darn bus is cheerin' and I can't believe I see,
             Dm7          Fm6                 D7  G7   C  Em  Gm  A Dm G
C
(a tempo) a hundred yellow ribbons 'round the ole oak tree.
