A simplified version of Follaton Wood :)
Please tell me if you have any suggestions for improvement!
G
Oh you screamed Hallelujah darling,
C
startled all the sleeping starlins on the wire.
G
As we walked up the footpath through the fields,
C
how the rain did reveal your heart.
G
And the rope swing from the balance held the weight,
C
shadows fall and a cold wind blows.
G
And you said oh maybe we're just lost souls here,
C
maybe oh everybody goes.
G C
Oh we were young oh ho we were young. (2x)
D G C
Still don't, don't you forget.
D G (D) C
That rope you tied around your neck.
G C
Don't free you darling, oh oh ho oh ho oh (2x)
G
And it took them three days to find you,
C
tired torch lights and dog scents.
G
Oh they led you down from the highest branches,
C
cold eyes and frozen arms.
G
And my my my your beauty was so dumbfounded,
C
lace white dress and your hair as long as Follaton Woods.
G
And the whole town just stood there crying looking at the darkness,
C
for something wholesome and good.
G C
Oh good, oh ho oh oh. (2x)
D G C
Still don't, don't you forget.
D G (D) C
That rope you tied around your neck.
G C
Don't free you darling, oh oh ho oh ho oh (2x)
G C
Morning white mist came across the plane, blue skies and rain.
G C
Oh and it was the strangest day, people taking cover people holding shame.
G C
Oh you'd left your heart oh ho oh ho oh. (4x)
G
You woulda laughed your heart out.
