HANGING IN THE TREE

We were twelve years old and we played hide and seek We would watch the girls and laugh hysterically Then came the day Todd’s hanging in the tree They said it was suicide but I knew it couldn’t be

Chorus:

That summer we played we laughed and we cried I’ll never forget the day that he died We played Captain Hook and we walked the plank We jump from the tree before the ship shank

Todd’s life had ended and they cut down the tree And I think to myself it could have been me

Chorus:

That summer we played we laughed and we cried I’ll never forget the day that he died

Bridge}

He slipped from the branch playing a game

My friend is gone but his memory remains.

Chorus:

That summer we played we laughed and we cried I’ll never forget the day that he died
