[Verse]
It's a Glovely day in Ballarat
I'mEm kicking back Gsus2thinking of youD
GI hear that you've been poorly
I am Emsorry that you're Gsus2feeling blueD
I Bmknow what it's like when you feel a little shitty
You Gjust wanna curl up and have an itty-bitty doona Aday
But a Bmlot of people here really miss ya, Georgie
They Greally think you oughta a just get on a plane (Ajust get on a plane)
We all just want you to…
[Chorus]
DCome home, Cardinal Bm9Pell, I know you're not feeling Gmaj7well
And being crook ain't much Dfun, even so, we Athink you should come
DHome, Cardinal Bm9Pell, come down from your citaGmaj7del
It's just the right thing to do, tDhey have a right to Aknow what you Gmaj7knew
[Verse]
Couldn't you seeGmaj7 what was under your nose,D Georgie
Back in 'A73 when you were living with Gerry?
Is it Bm9true that you knew but you Dchose to ignore,
Or did you Aactively try to keep it buried?
And years Glater when survivors, despite their D/Bshame and their Afear,
Stood Gup to tell their stories, you spent year after D/Ayear A
Working Ghard to protect the church's Aassets?
I mean with Em7all due respect dude, I think you're Ascum,
and I reckon you should…
[Chorus]
DCome home, Cardinal Bm9Pell, we know you're not feeling Gmaj7well
Perhaps you just need some Dsun, it's lovely Ahere you should come
DHome, you pompous buffBm9oon, and I suggest do it Gmaj7soon
I hear the tolling of a Dbell, and it has a APellian knell
[Bridge]
I Bm9wanna be transparent here, GeorgAe, I'm not the greatest fan of your relDigion
And I Bm9personally believe that those who Acover up abuse should go to Dprison
But your Gethical hypocrisy, your F#mintellectual vacuity
And your Garrogance don't bother me as Amuch
As the Gfact that you have turned out to be Asuch a goddamn coward
You're a Emcoward Georgie
Come and face the F#mmusic Georgie
You owe it to the Gvictims Georgie
Come and face the Amusic, the music, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
(notes only)
(d e f# g a g g f# e d)
If the Lord God omnipotent reigneth
AHe would take one look at you and say
[Chorus]
DGo home, Cardinal Bm9Pell, I've got a nice spot in Gmaj7hell
With your name on it and Dso, I suggest you Atoughen up and go
DHome, Cardinal Bm7Pell, I'm sure they'll make you feel Gmaj7well
Come at the pub in BallaDrat, they just want a Abeer and a chat
D(Come home Cardinal Bm7Pell) I know you're scared Georgie-Gmaj7Poo
(Come home) D They have a right to Aknow what you do
Your Emtime is running out to atone, Georgie
I F#mthink the Lord is calling you home, Georgia
PerGhaps he could forgive even you (he may forgive even you)
If you Ajust let them know what you knew
DOh, Cardinal Bm9Pell, my lawyer just rang me to Gmaj7tell me
This song could get me Din legal trAouble
DOh well, Cardinal Bm9Pell, if you don't feel comGmaj7pelled
To come home by a Dsense of moral duAty
PerGsus2haps you will come Ahome and frickin' Dsue me
