C                  Am 
I came to town to search for gold 
      C                  G 
And I brought with me a memory 
         Am                C 
And seem to hear the night wind cry 
   Am                  C 
Go hang your dreams on the hangin tree 
     Am                        C 
Your dreams of love that could never be 
                G          C 
Hang your faded dreams on the hangin tree 
 
 
 
I searched for gold and I found my gold 
And I found a girl who loved just me 
And I wish that I could love her too 
But I left my heart on the hangin tree 
I left my heart with a memory 
And a faded dream on the hangin tree 
 
 
Now there were men who craved my gold 
And meant to take my gold from me 
When a man is gone he needs no gold 
So they carried me to the hangin tree 
To join my dreams and a memory 
Yes they carried me to the hangin tree 
 
 
To really live you must almost die 
And it happened just that way with me 
They took my gold and set me free 
And I walked away from the hangin tree 
I walked away from the hangin tree 
And my own true love, she walked with me 
 
 
      F                 G 
Thats when I knew that the hangin tree 
      F                  C 
Was a tree of life, new life for me 
  F                 C 
A tree of hope new hope for me 
F                    C 
A tree of love new love for me 
                 F                 C 
The hangin tree, the hangin tree, the hangin tree
