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