TIE A YELLOW RIBBON
TONY ORLANDO & DAWN
CAPO 5th fret
Tabbed by Jim Bauer (jbauer601@hotmail.com)

Note: Originally tabbed by Ray Rickert, I just thought
the version was a little bit difficult to follow...something
with the formatting. In any case, I retabbed it for my own
reference and thought I would post the altered version. Made a
couple of very minor corrections as well.

INTRO: C Em Dm G

verse:
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

chorus:
C Em
Tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree
Gm A A7 Dm
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 C/G
I`ll stay on the bus, forget about us
Am A
Put the blame on me

bridge:
Dm7 Fm6 D7 G7 C (Am Dm G7)
If I don`t see a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree

verse:
C Em
Bus driver please look for me
Gm A7 Dm
Cause I couldn`t bear to see what I might see
Fm C Am
I`m really still in prison and my love she holds the key
D7 Fm6 G7
A simple yellow ribbon`s what I need to set me free
Fm6 G7
I wrote and told her please

:| chorus & bridge, skipping part in (), then to harmonica solo

over harmonica solo: C Em Gm A A7 Dm x2

verse:
(slower, single appregios)
Dm7 Fm6 C A7
Now the whole damn bus is cheerin` and I can`t believe I see
C (normal tempo) Dm7 Fm6 D7 G7 C Em Gm A Dm
A hundred yellow ribbons `round the ole oak tree

coda:
C Em
Tie a ribbon `round the ole oak tree, tie a ribbon `round the ole oak tree
Gm A Dm
Tie a ribbon `round the ole oak tree, tie a ribbon `round the ole oak tree

:| and fade

I like playing this song barred, but you can of course use
regular fingerings for any or all of these chords. Might be
a tad hard to play barred with capoed 5th fret with say,
heavy gauge bronze. :)
