The Hanging Tree

Am           Dm   Am            Em
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
Am                     Dm  G                 Am
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three
Am                 F
Strange things did happen here
   Am                D/F#
No stranger would it be
Am              Dm     Am               Em
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree

Am           Dm   Am            Em
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
Am                        Dm  G               Am
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee
Am                 F
Strange things did happen here
   Am                D/F#
No stranger would it be
Am              Dm     Am               Em
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree

Am           Dm   Am            Em
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
Am                  Dm   G               Am
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free
Am                  F
Strange things  did happen here
   Am                D/F#
No stranger would it be
Am              Dm     Am               Em
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree

Am           Dm   Am            Em
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
Am                 Dm    G                 Am
Wear a necklace of rope, side by side with me
Am                 F
Strange things did happen here
   Am                D/F#
No stranger would it be
Am              Dm     Am               Em
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree
