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,

then you'll know just what to do if you still want me,
Fm6 G7
if you still want me.
Chorus:
C Em
Tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree
Gm A Dm
it's been three long years, do you still want me?

If I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree,

I'll stay on the bus, forget about us.

Put the blame on me.

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...
