Am Em C
There have been many tales
G Am G Am
Tainted by truth twisted by time…
Am Em C
Some choose to forget
G
Yet it still
C G C
Weaves webs in their minds…
C G
And it seems like she's been here forever
Dm Am
Her branches as black as the seas
Am Am/B
She's been through it all
C D
By the luck of the draw
C G Am
She became the old hanging tree…
She asked for nothing
Except maybe
A little rain…
They used her strength
To help them steal lives away…
And she witnessed the sadness and the sorrow
To this day she still doesn't know why
And her heart broke
When they came with the rope
To declare her the old hanging tree…
G C
Life stranger then fiction
E Am
Can make you want to cry
Dm Am
Roots could never stop her
F C G
From reaching for the sky…
Those years have all past
Lucky for us lucky for her…
Now, children play at her feet
And in her arms she cradles birds…
And it seems she's been here forever
These days are the best that she's seen
But somewhere in the back
Of her mind
Is the time
She was known as the old hanging tree…
