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
