Am  G/B E7  Am Em7  Am


Am     Em7    Am  A9  Am    E7
Southern trees bear a strange fruit

Am         Em7      Am  A9  Am 
Blood on the leaves and blood at the

   E7
 root

Bm5-/7          E7/9-     
Black bodies swinging in the 

     Fdim     E7
southern breeze

Am         Em7           Asus4 
Strange fruit hanging from the 

A9  Am
poplar trees

Am     Em7         Am  A9  Am  
Pastoral scene of the gallant    

   E7
south

  Am     Em7       Fdim     E7
The bulging eyes and the twisted 
mouth

Am         Em7  Bm5-/7      Em7 
Smell of magnolia,          

  A9  Am  E7
sweet and fresh

    E7/9-  Bm5-/7     Fdim    E7
Then the sudden smell of burning 
flesh

Am        Am7+           Dm   
Here is the fruit for the 

Dm7   E7
crows to pluck

     Am       E7          Gdim  F
For the rain to gather, for the 

  E7
wind to suck

Em5-/7     A    A7M          
For   the sun to rot, for the

Gdim   Fdim  E7
 tree  to drop

Am   A9  Am   E7  Bm5-/7   
Here is a strange  and    

Em5-/7     E7 Am
bitter     crop
