Hanging Tree Ukulele Chords

Em                        C
Passing through the arms of satan
Am                        C     D
Reaching for the hands of god
Em                        C
Robbing every mind for wisdom
Am                       C     D
Running so he won't get caught
Em                       C
He's outlawed by majority
Am                       C      D
Been branded all his life
Em                       C
Some say that he's a sinner man
Am                       C      D
As he rides from day to night
 
Em    D                 C
He's a bad man, so they say
              Am            D    Em
Living for his love and living free
         D                C
Riding swift and secretly
         Am         D        Em
So he'll miss the hanging tree
         D              C
Wounded spirit on the wind
         Am          D       Em
Riding to his dream and destiny
 
 
He's laughing at the wanted posters
Calling for his friends to see
Laughing aloud as he rides away
Kicking up the dust with speed
Time hands him down a pathway
And freedom is a horse he rides
Glory is a dream he's after
And fortune is his heart's delight
 
Riding swift and secretly
So he'll miss the hanging tree
Wounded spirit on the wind
Riding to his dream and destiny
