The Hanging Tree

Dbm       Gbm
Are you, are you
Dbm             Ab7
Coming to the tree
     Dbm          Gbm
They strung up a man
     B                Dbm
They say who murdered three.
Dbm                 A
Strange things did happen here
      Dbm             Abm
No stranger would it be
      Dbm      Gbm
If we met at midnight
Ab7             Dbm
In the hanging tree.


 Dbm       Gbm
Are you, are you
Dbm             Ab7
Coming to the tree
      Dbm              Gbm
Where dead man called out
 B           Dbm
For his love to flee.

Are you, are you
Dbm             Ab7
Coming to the tree
       Dbm            Gbm
Where I told you to run,
 B              Dbm
So we'd both be free.

Are you, are you
Dbm             Ab7
Coming to the tree
       Dbm            Gbm
Wear a necklace of rope,
 B           Dbm
Side by side with me.
