G
Won't you come home Bill Bailey won't you come home
D7
I moan the whole night long
I'll do the cooking honey I'll pay the rent
G
I know I done you wrong
Remember that rainy evening that
G7 C
I drove you out with nothing but a fine tooth comb
G E7
Yes I know that I'm to blame and ain't that a shame
A7 D7 G
Bill Bailey won't you please come home
Won't you come home Bill Bailey won't you come home
D7
I moan the whole night long
I'm a gonna do your cooking honey I'm a gonna pay your rent
G
I know that I've done you wrong
Remember that rainy evening that
G7 C
I drove you out with nothing but a fine tooth comb
G E7
Well I know that I'm to blame and ain't that a dirty low down shame
A7 D7 G
Bill Bailey won't you please come home
Come home come home Bill Bailey
A7 D7 G
Bill Bailey won't you please come on home
D7 G
Come home Bill Bailey
A7 D7 G
Bill Bailey won't you please come on home
D7 G
Come on home
