[Verse]
D
Oh you Screamed Hallelujah darling,
D                                  G
startled all the sleeping Starlins on the wire.
G     D
As we walked up the footpath through the fields,
D                       G
how the rain did reveal your heart.
G       D
And the rope swing from the balance held the weight,
D                            G
shadows fall and a cold wind blows.
G               D
And you said oh maybe we're just lost souls here,
D
maybe oh everybody goes.

[Refrain]
G          D                   G
Oh we were young oh ho we were young.
G          D                   G
Oh we were young oh ho we were young.

[Chorus]
A            D            G
Still don't, don't you forget.
G    A        D                G
That rope you tied around your neck.
G     D                                G
Don't free you darling, oh oh ho oh ho oh
G     D                                G
Don't free you darling, oh oh ho oh ho oh

[Verse]
G      D
And it took them three days to find you,
A           D              G
tired torch lights and dog scents.
G       D
Oh they led you down from the highest branches,
D             G
cold eyes and frozen arms.
G            D
And my my my your beauty was so dumbfounded,
D                                         G
lace white dress and your hair as long as Follaton Woods.
G       D
And the whole town just stood there crying looking at the darkness,
D             G
for something wholesome and good.

[Refrain]

G     D           G
Oh good, oh ho oh oh.
G     D           G
Oh good, oh ho oh oh.

[Chorus]
A            D            G
Still don't, don't you forget.
G    A        D                G
That rope you tied around your neck.
G     D                                G
Don't free you darling, oh oh ho oh ho oh
G     D                                G
Don't free you darling, oh oh ho oh ho oh

[Bridge]
D
Morning white mist came across the plane,
D    G
blue skies and rain.
D
Oh and it was the strangest day,
D                          G
people taking cover people holding shame.
D G

[Outro]
G
Oh you'd left your
D        G
Heart oh ho oh ho oh. Oh you'd left your
D        G
Heart oh ho oh ho oh. Oh you'd left your
D        G
Heart oh ho oh ho oh. Oh you'd left your
D        G
Heart oh ho oh ho oh. Oh you'd left your
