Автор мелодии: Dawn featuring Tony Orlando
-2 -2 -3 5
I'm coming home,
5 5 -2 2
I've done my time.
-3 4 -5 4 4
Now I've got to know
<-3 -3 -3 <-3 4 <-3
what is and isn't mine.
4 4 <-3 4 <-3 4 <-3
If you received my letter
-2 3 -3 -3 -5 -5 -6
telling you I'd soon be free,
-6 -6 -5 -5 -3 -3 -5
Then you'll know just what to do
<5 <5 <-5 <5 5
if you still want me--
<5 <5 <-5 <5 5
If you still want me.
Chorus
-6 5 -5 -3 4 -2
Tie a yellow ribbon
3 -2 2 -5 5
'round the old oak tree
-5 5 <-1 -5 5
It's been three long years,
-5 5 -1 4 <-3
do ya still want me?
-1 4 <-3 4 <-3 4 <-3
If I don't see a ribbon
-2 3 -3 -3 3 -2
'round the old oak tree,
3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -2 -3 -3 -3 -3
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us,
-3 -3 4 -5 6
Put the blame on me.
-5 4 <-3 4 <-3 4 <-3 -2 3
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
-3 -3 -3 5 -5 3 -2
round the ole oak tree.
Verse 2
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 her and told her please
chorus
Ending--
4 <-3 4 <-3 4 <-3 4 <-3
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
-2 3 -3 -3 5 -5 6
And I can't believe I see
-5 4 <-3 4 <-3 4 <-3
A hundred yellow ribbons
-2 3 -3 3 -3 3 3 -2
'round the old oak tree.
