The Hangin' Tree

Capo 1

C                  Am
I came to town to search for gold
      C                  G
And I brought with me a memory
         Am                C
And seem to hear the night wind cry
   Am                  C
Go hang your dreams on the hangin 
tree
     Am                        C
Your dreams of love that could never
 be
                G          C
Hang your faded dreams on the hangin
 tree

I searched for gold and I found my 
gold

And I found a girl who loved just me
And I wish that I could love her too
But I left my heart on the hangin 
tree
I left my heart with a memory
And a faded dream on the hangin tree

Now there were men who craved my 
gold
And meant to take my gold from me
When a man is gone he needs no gold
So they carried me to the hangin 
tree
To join my dreams and a memory
Yes they carried me to the hangin 
tree

To really live you must almost die
And it happened just that way with 
me
They took my gold and set me free
And I walked away from the hangin 
tree
I walked away from the hangin tree
And my own true love, she walked 
with me

      F                 G
Thats when I knew that the hangin 
tree
      F                  C
Was a tree of life, new life for me
  F                 C
A tree of hope new hope for me
F                    C
A tree of love new love for me
                 F               
The hangin tree, the hangin tree, 
  C
