Verse
A#m F#
It was just before the moon hung
A#m F#
Her weary heavy head in
A#m F#
The gallows and the graves of
A#m F#
The milky milky cradle
A#m F#
His tears have turned to poppies
A#m F#
A# shimmer in the midnight
A#m F#
A# flower in the twilight
A#m F#
A# flower in the twilight
Chorus
A#m C#
And our screaming
G# Fm
Is in his screaming
A#m C# G# Fm
Our screaming in the willow tree.
Verse 2
A#m F#
They took him to the gallows
A#m F#
He fought them all the way though
A#m F#
And when they asked us how we knew
A#m F#
His name
A#m F#
We died just before him
A#m F#
Our eyes are in the flowers
A#m F#
Our hands are in the branches
A#m F#
Our voices in the breezes
Chorus
A#m C#
And our screaming
G# Fm
Is in his screaming
A#m C# G# Fm
Our screaming in the willow tree
Verse 3
A#m F#
We're waiting by the willow
A#m F#
Our milky milky cradle
A#m F#
Our lockets long have rusted
A#m F#
His picture worn and weathered
A#m F#
Our hair is in the garden
A#m F#
The roses in our toeses
A#m F#
Our heart are in the blossoms
A#m F#
Our eyes are in the branches
Chorus x2
A#m C#
And our screaming
G# Fm
Is in his screaming
A#m C# G# Fm
Our screaming in the willow tree
