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