Yellow Ribbon Ukulele tab

	  Verse 

C 
I've traveled through this country 
         G 
And I'll tell you what I've seen 

A million yellow ribbons 
      C 
And I wonder what they mean 
     F 
It's love and hope and sympathy 
    C 
For those who've gone to fight 
    D 
But still I know that none of them 
    G                G7 
Can make the killing right 

Verse 
        C 
When we see two children fighting 
         G 
Don't we try to come between 

Get 'em both to talk 
           C 
Instead of acting rough and mean 
   F 
We give 'em love and limits 
        C 
Say now try to get along 
        D 
Then we tell 'em it's alright to kill 
   G                    G7 
To prove that killing's wrong 

Verse 
C 
Sometimes your yellow ribbon 
         G 
Tries to make me feel ashamed 

Tells me I'm a traitor 
     C 
That somehow it's me to blame 
    F 
But I can't hide behind it 
        C 
Just to prove that I belong 
    D 
And I won't be an accomplice 
     G               G7 
To a thing I know is wrong 

Verse 
        C 
But I'd wear a yellow ribbon 
        G 
For the peace that's in my heart 

I'd wear it for the loved ones 
            C 
That should never have to part 
    F 
I'd wear it for the wasted lives 
   C 
No matter friend or foe 
        D 
And I'd wear it for the children 
        G            G7 
If they never had to go 

Verse 
          C 
Yes, I've seen your yellow ribbons 
        G 
Hanging up all over town 

But I don't think they'll ever buy 
    C 
The peace we've never found 

Outro 
    F 
Oh, the guns will all be silent 
        C 
And the battle flags all furled 
        G            G7 
When we tie a yellow ribbon 
           C 
'Round the world 
         F 
Yes, the guns will all be silent 
        C 
And the battle flags all furled 
        G            G7 
When we tie a yellow ribbon 
           C 
'Round the world
