Bitter branches
Cm        A#
spreading out.
Cm            A#
There's none more bitter
Cm        A#
than the wood.
Gm        G#
Into the wide world,
Gm  G#
it grows,

Twisting under soldiers' feet
Standing in lines and the damp earth underneath
Holding up their rifles high
Holding their young wives who wave goodbye

Hold up the clear glass, look and see
Soldiers standing and the roots twist underneath
Their young wives with white hands wave goodbye
Their arms as bitter branches spreading
into the world

Wave goodbye, they wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, they wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
They wave goodbye, wave goodbye
