The Almond Tree Lyrics & Chords By Hannah Peel

Temperance the dear old deer
Did not dare to bother anyone's ear
With her uptight jaw and hair tightly pinned
Who'd have thought the sin to be within?
Bury me under the almond tree
If anything should happen to me
Late last june I heard a cry
I ran to see my younger sister die
The poisoned meat had cut deep inside
I cast my revenge on temperance tonight
Bury me under the almond tree
If anything should happen to me
Bury me under the almond tree
If anything should happen to me
I walked for months through the rain and pour
No sign of temperance and her deathly paw
I start to think did I dream it all up
What revenge is this, its my life now that's been caught
Bury me under the almond tree
If anything should happen to me
Bury me under the almond tree
If anything should happen to me
