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

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