(D7)Oh the prickly (G)bush
(C)Bears my (D7)heart full of (G)sore
And if (C)ever (D7)I get a(G)way far of that bush
I’ll never get (D7)caught any (G)more.

So (D7)Hangman wont you (G)wait and see.
Wont you (C)rest your (D7)hand for a (G)while
For me (C)thinks I (D7)see my (G)own father
Coming over (D7)yonder (G)stile.

Now (D7)father have you brought me (G)gold
Or (C)silver to (D7)set me (G)free?
Or (C)have you (D7)come just to (G)see me hanging,
Hanging from the (D7)gallows (G)tree?

No, (D7)son I haven’t brought you (G)gold
Or (C)silver to (D7)set you (G)free.
But (C)I must (D7)watch and (G)see as you’re hanging,
Hanging from the (D7)gallows (G)tree.

But it’s (D7)oh the prickly (G)bush
It (C)bears my (D7)heart full of (G)sore
And if (C)ever (D7)I get a(G)way far of that bush
I’ll never get (D7)caught any (G)more.

So (D7)Hangman wont you (G)wait and see.
Wont you (C)rest your (D7)hand for a (G)while
For me (C)thinks I (D7)see my (G)own mother
Coming over (D7)yonder (G)stile.

Oh, (D7)mother have you brought me (G)gold
Or (C)silver to (D7)set me (G)free?
Or (C)have you (D7)come just to (G)see me hanging,
Hanging from the (D7)gallows (G)tree?
