Am E C There have been many tales G Am G Am Tainted by truth, twisted by time… Am E C Some choose to forget G C G C Yet it still 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 E She's been through it all C G By the luck of the draw C G Am She became the old hanging tree… Am E C She asked for nothing G Am G Am Except maybe a little rain… Am E C They used her strength G C G C To help them steal lives away… C G And she witnessed the sadness and sorrow Dm Am To this day she still doesn't know why Am E But her heart broke C G When they came with the rope C G Am To declare her the old hanging tree… G C Life stranger than fiction E Am Can make you want to cry Dm Am Roots could never stop her F C G B7 From reaching for the sky…
