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

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