Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old Oak tree,

Bus driver, please, look for me.
        Bbm              C7               Fm
Cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see.
                    Abm            Cm
I'm really still in prison, and my love 
she holds the key.
  F7                            Abm6           
A simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me 
Bb7

  Abm6                Bb7
I wrote and told her, please...
