[Verse 1]
F# C# F#
I'm full of pride and my heart feels good
F#maj7
Got news from my family up in the woods
D#m G# F# C#
At last I can go back where I belong
C# F#
Sweated it all out for nine long years
F#maj7 D#m
Couldn't believe the voice in my ears
D#m G# F# C#
When the man saying "no hiding ,son"
C# F#
So I left the only folks I had known
F#maj7
I was fifteen then, hardly grown
D#m G# F# C#
When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud
C# F#
Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far
F#maj7
Said to myself stay right where you are
D#m G#
Done found yourself a ma and pa
G# F# C#
Everybody said the kid's no good
[Chorus]
C# F# C#
Come home Johnny Bridie come home
G# C#
Johnny Bridie come home
G#
We're all wrong without you
F#
How did we ever doubt you
C#
He confessed to the killing
F#
It's his role we had you filling
C# F#
We didn't really mean to make you sad
G# F# G# F# G#
But when you ran you made us think
F# G# F# G#
That you were twice as bad
