"Funeral" lyrics

"Funeral"

Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh

Tall grass in the road
As you meander
Through the orchard
And I felt that heavy hand
Hard upon my shoulder
Coverin' my mouth
But pullin' at my heart
And I've seen too many heroes
Die without a love
Wearin' a mask
Is that what I'm dreamin' of
So bring that trader forward

Hang him for his crimes
I never got the reason
Never understood the rhyme

Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh
Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh

Mercy on the rope, oh
As you swing from the gallows
And bless it be
That this thing that's been haunting me
Is a lot like a long and shiny barrel

Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
