The Hanging Tree

Am
Are you, are you comin' to the tree?
           Am          Dm       E
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three

Am                 Dm              Am
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
      Am        Dm       E              Am
If we met up at midnight in the hangin’ tree

    Am       Dm   Am
Are you, are you comin' to the tree?
          Am              Dm   E
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee

Am                 Dm              Am
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
      Am        Dm       E              Am
If we met up at midnight in the hangin' tree

    Am       Dm   Am
Are you, are you comin’ to the tree?
        Am          Dm      E
Where I told you to run so we'd both bе free

Am                 Dm              Am
Strange things did happen herе, no stranger would it be
      Am        Dm       E              Am
If we met up at midnight in the hangin' tree

    Am       Dm  Am
Are you, are you comin' to the tree?
       Am          Dm    E
Wear a necklace of rope side by side with me

Am                 Dm              Am
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
      Am
If we met up at midnight in the hangin' tree
