[Verse 1]
G D Em
They buried my body on Christmas
G C D
In the ground by the south river bank
G D Em
Worked to my death, for my very last breath
C D G
I'd the Winchester bishops to thank
G D Em
Now the church held the keys to the brothel
C G D
Lit the window with a burning red light
G D Em
While I teased the funds from the pockets of johns
C D G
The bishop got rich in the night
[Pre Refrain]
D
But I didn't fall apart
D
Through my years in the dark
D
For my lover I guarded
D
My pure, pure heart
[Refrain]
G C
And he meets me in the graveyard
G D
The graveyard where they made my bed
G C
Plants a white flower under cold stars
Em D G Em D G
On the grave of the forgotten dead
[Verse 2]
G D Em
Now the bishops snuck off to fresh pastures
C G D
While my grave was grown over with weeds
G D Em
No burial plots, just some forget-me-nots
C D G
For the women they branded unclean
G D Em
The wasteland was claimed by the city
C G D
They covered it with tenement slums
G D Em
For where we'd been left had never been blessed
C D G
And they dug down and built on our bones
[Pre Refrain]
D
But every December
D
With frost on his fingers
D
My lover returns
D
For he still remembers
[Refrain]
G C
To meet me in the graveyard
G D
The graveyard where they made my bed
G C
Plants a white flower under cold stars
Em D G
On the grave of the forgotten dead

[Bridge]
G Cm
The sun goes down and the last folk leave
G Cm
It's London Town on Christmas Eve
G Cm
My lover still wanders bereft and bereaved
G Cm
For he can't find the woman that he promised he'd meet
G Cm
The sun comes up on the cold, cold ground
G Cm
It's Christmas morning in London Town
G Cm
He lays on my grave and he cradles his head
G Cm
And as he hears the church bells, he knows that I'm dead
[Verse 3]
G D Em
So London, don't mourn for your lovers
C G D
Raise a glass for us glorious dead
G D Em
For beneath Southwark streets, we outlasted the priests
C D Em/G
And the city's raised up on our beds
C D G
Though we're gone, London, do not forget
[Verse 4]
G C
To meet us on Christmas
G D
In the graveyard where they made our bed
G C
Plant a white flower for the outcasts
Em D C
On the graves of the forgotten dead
G C
Oh to meet us on Christmas
G D
In the graveyard where they made our bed
G C
Plant a white flower for the outcasts
Em D C
On the graves of the forgotten dead
[Outro]
