    D#
Oh you screamed Hallelujah darling,
                                   G#
startled all the sleeping starlins on the wire.
    D#
As we walked up the footpath through the fields,
                   G#
how the rain did reveal your heart.

And the rope swing from the balance held the weight
Shadows fall and a cold wind blows
And you said "oh, maybe we're just lost souls here
Maybe oh everybody goes"

            D#                  G#
Oh we were young oh ho we were young.
            D#                  G#
Oh we were young oh ho we were young.

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

And it took them three days to find you
Tired torch lights and dog scents
Oh they let you down from the highest branches
Cold eyes and frozen arms
And my my my your beauty was so dumbfoundin'

Lace white dress and your hair as long
as Follaton Woods
And the whole town just stood there crying
Looking at the darkness
For something wholesome and good

Oh good, oh oh oh oh
Oh good, oh oh oh oh

Chorus

Morning white mist came in across the plains
Blue skies and rain
Oh and it was the strangest day
People taking cover, people holding shame

And you woulda left your heart out
Oh you woulda left your heart out
You woulda left your heart out
You woulda laughed your heart out*
You woulda laughed your heart out*
