Lyrics
Are you, are you coming to the tree?
They strung up a man they say who murdered three.
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be if we (A5)met at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you coming to the tree?
Where dead man called out (Am)for his love to flee.
Strange things did (Asus)happen here, no stranger would it be if we (F)met at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you coming to the tree?
Where I told you to run so we'd both be free.
(A5)Strange things did (F)happen here, no (A5)stranger would it (Asus)be if we (Am)met at (Asus2)midnight (A5)in the hanging tree.
Are (A7)you, are (Asus)you (Am)coming to the (E5)tree?
Wear a (Am)necklace of (D5)hope (G5)side by side with (A5)me.
(A7)Strange things did (F)happen here, no (A5)stranger would it (D)be if we (A5)met at (D5)midnight (E5)in the hanging (A5)tree.
