Gallows

Verse 1

Am              F
It was just before the moon hung
Am           F
Her weary heavy head in
Am              F
The gallows and the graves of
Am          F
The milky milky cradle
Am                 F
His tears have turned to poppies
Am           F
A shimmer in the midnight
Am         F
A flower in the twilight
Am         F
A flower in the twilight

Chorus

       Am   C
And our screaming
       G   Em
Is in his screaming
    Am  C        G    Em
Our screaming in the willow tree.

Verse 2

    Am          F
They took him to the gallows
   Am             F
He fought them all the way though
    Am             F
And when they asked us how we knew
   Am   F
His name
   Am      F
We died just before him
    Am         F
Our eyes are in the flowers
    Am          F
Our hands are in the branches
   Am        F
Our voices in the breezes

Chorus

       Am   C
And our screaming
       G    Em
Is in his screaming
    Am      C    G    Em
Our screaming in the willow tree

Verse 3

     Am         F
We're waiting by the willow
    Am       F
Our milky milky cradle
    Am           F
Our lockets long have rusted
   Am           F
His picture worn and weathered
    Am        F
Our hair is in the garden
    Am       F
The roses in our toeses
    Am          F
Our heart are in the blossoms
    Am         F
Our eyes are in the branches


Chorus x2

       Am   C
And our screaming
       G    Em
Is in his screaming
    Am      C    G    Em
Our screaming in the willow tree
