A5                    A5
On the willows there we hung up our lives
A5                  B5        B5       B5
For our captors there required     of us songs
B5     B5       A5
And our tormenters' mirth

A5                    A5
On the willows there we hung up our lives
A5                  B5        B5       B5
For our captors there required     of us songs
B5     B5       A5
And our tormenters' mirth

        A5    E5 F#5        G5    C5
Saying, sing us   one of the songs of Zion
A5    E5 F#5        G5    C5
Sing us   one of the songs of Zion
A5    E5 F#5        G5    
Sing us   one of the songs of Zion
    F#5       G5
But how can we sing
F#5            G5
Sing the Lord's song
F#5 D5    E5
In a foreign land?

A5                    A5
On the willows there we hung up our lives
