I think I'd remove that offending cd! Its presence embodies an assumption that every such script needs to be run in /home/chris, which as you've clearly demonstrated can be inappropriate.
It's easy enough, all it needed was to remember where I had cd'ed from and then restore it. e.g.:-
olddir=`pwd` # do things that require a specific directory cd $olddir
