Verse 1

A5                            F5
It was just before the moon hung
A5                     F5
Her weary heavy head in
A5                           F5
The gallows and the graves of 
A5                    F5
The milky milky cradle
A5                                 F5
His tears have turned to poppies
A5                      F5
A shimmer in the midnight
A5                  F5
A flower in the twilight
A5                  F5
A flower in the twilight

Chorus

             A5     C5    
And our screaming
             G5      E5
Is in his screaming
       A5   C5                G5        E5
Our screaming in the willow tree.

Verse 2

        A5                    F5
They took him to the gallows
     A5                         F5
He fought them all the way though
       A5                          F5                         
And when they asked us how we knew
     A5      F5 
His name
      A5            F5
We died just before him
       A5                  F5
Our eyes are in the flowers
       A5                    F5
Our hands are in the branches
      A5                F5
Our voices in the breezes

Chorus

             A5     C5
And our screaming
             G5        E5
Is in his screaming
       A5           C5        G5        E5
Our screaming in the willow tree

Verse 3

         A5                  F5
We're waiting by the willow
       A5             F5
Our milky milky cradle
       A5                      F5
Our lockets long have rusted
      A5                      F5
His picture worn and weathered
       A5               F5
Our hair is in the garden
       A5              F5
The roses in our toeses
       A5                   F5
Our heart are in the blossoms
       A5                  F5
Our eyes are in the branches


Chorus x2

             A5     C5
And our screaming
             G5        E5
Is in his screaming
       A5           C5        G5        E5
Our screaming in the willow tree
