Вступление
[Intro]
Em - Em
[Verse 1]
Em D Em
Last night I dreamt I stood upon the scaffold there to die
Em D Em
Dressed in all my finery to bid this world goodbye.
Em D Em
The hangman stood before me in the black hood of his trade
Em D Em
Commended by the magistrate for the stout noose that he'd made.
[Chorus]
G D A Em G D C
Hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns gladly will I give thee,
G D A Em G D C
hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns, if you will only spare me.
[Verse 2]
Em D Em
His eager young apprentice then stepped back to bind my wrists
Em D Em
Urged on by the restless mob who jeered and shook their fists.
Em D Em
Hawkers cried of hot meat pies, of gibbets and of gin
Em D Em
At ladies strained for a better view, all anxious to begin.
[Chorus]
G D A Em G D C
Hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns gladly will I give thee,
G D A Em G D C
hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns, if you will only spare me.
[Verse 3]
Em D Em
The undertaker and the judge hunched like two black crows
Em D Em
Sat aside my coffin as they gambled for my clothes.
[Chorus]
G D A Em G D C
Hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns gladly will I give thee,
G D A Em G D C
hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns, if you will only spare me.

Hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns gladly will I give thee,

hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns, if you will only spare me.
[Verse 4]
Em D Em
And when at last I did awake and shook myself from sleep
Em D Em
I lay in rusted prison chains with the Chaplain at my feet
Em D Em
"Arise my son" he said at length "and walk awhile with me,
Em D Em
the hour it grows late I fear and the hangman waits for thee".
[Chorus]
G D A Em G D C
Hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns gladly will I give thee,
G D A Em G D C
hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns, if you will only spare me.
G D A Em G D C
Hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns gladly will I give thee,
G D A Em G D C Em
hangman, hangman, ten gold crowns, if you will only spare me.
