[Intro]
Am F E7 Am
Lo, lo, lo____
[Verse 1]
Dm Am F
Lazlo Feher stole a stallion
Am A7 Dm
Stole him from the Misty Mountain
Am
And they chased him and they caught him
F Dm Am
And in iron chains they bound him
[Verse 2]
Dm Am F
Word was brought to Anathea
Am A7 Dm
That her brother was in prison
Am
"Bring me gold and six fine horses
F Dm Am
I will buy my brother's freedom"
[Verse 3]
Dm Am F
"Judge, oh Judge, please spare my brother
Am A7 Dm
I will give you gold and silver"
Am
"I don't want your gold and silver
F Dm Am
All I want are your sweet favours"
[Verse 4]
Dm Am F
"Anathea, oh, my sister
Am A7 Dm
Are you mad with grief and sorrow?
Am
He will rob you of your flower
F Dm Am
And he'll hang me from the gallows"
[Verse 5]
Dm Am F
Anathea did not heed him
Am A7 Dm
Straightway to the judge went running
Am
In his golden bed at midnight
F Dm Am
There she heard the gallows groaning
[Verse 6]
Dm Am F
"Cursed be that judge so cruel
Am A7 Dm
Thirteen years may he lie bleeding
Am
Thirteen doctors cannot cure him
F Dm Am
Thirteen shelves of drugs can't heal him
[Verse 7]
Dm Am F
"Anathea, Anathea
Am A7 Dm
Don't go out into the forest
Am
There among the green pines standing
F Dm Am
You will find your brother hanging"
[Outro]
