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