Th[Am]ere have b[E]een many t[C]ales
T[G]ainted by tr[Am]uth tw[G]isted by t[Am]ime

S[Am]ome ch[E]oose to forg[C]et
Y[G]et it still w[C]eaves w[G]ebs in their m[C]inds

And it s[C]eems like she's been here for[G]ever
Her br[Dm]anches as black as the s[Am]eas
She's b[Am]een through it [E]all
By the l[C]uck of the dr[G]aw
She bec[C]ame the [G]old hanging tr[Am]ee


S[Am]he [E]asked for noth[C]ing
[G]Except may[Am]be [G]a little r[Am]ain

Th[Am]ey [E]used her str[C]ength
T[G]o help them st[C]eal l[G]ives aw[C]ay

And she w[C]itnessed the sadness and s[G]orrow
To this d[Dm]ay she still doesn't know wh[Am]y
But her h[Am]eart br[E]oke
When they c[C]ame with the r[G]ope
To decl[C]are her the [G]old hanging tr[Am]ee


L[G]ife stranger then f[C]iction
Can m[E]ake you want to cr[Am]y
R[Dm]oots could never st[Am]op her
From r[F]eaching f[C]or the sk[G]y
[H7]

Th[Am]ose y[E]ears have all p[C]ast
L[G]ucky for [Am]us l[G]ucky for h[Am]er

Now, ch[Am]ildren pl[E]ay at her f[C]eet
[G]And in her [C]arms sh[G]e cradles b[C]irds

And it s[C]eems like she's been here for[G]ever
Her br[Dm]anches as black as the s[Am]eas
She's b[Am]een through it [E]all
By the l[C]uck of the dr[G]aw
She bec[C]ame the [G]old hanging tr[Am]ee


Yes somewh[Am]ere in the b[E]ack of her m[C]ind is the t[G]ime
she was kn[Am]own as the [G]old h[Em]anging tr[Am]ee...
