Strange Fruit Tab par Nina Simone

Bm          Em
Southern trees
Em             F#
Bear strange fruit
Bm              D
Blood on the leaves
Em               F#             
And blood at the roots
Em             
Black bodies 
Em7                        Bm    D
Swinging in the southern breeze


G               F#
Strange fruit hangin'
Bm                   Em  Bm
From the poplar trees
D
Pastoral scene
A         F#
Of the gallant south
Em                 G
Them big bulging eyes
                   A   Em G Em7 F# 
And the twisted mouth


           C#m
Scent of magnolia
F#            
Clean and fresh
Em                 
Then the sudden smell
F#   
Of burnin' flesh


Bm             D
Here is a fruit
G                  F# 
For the crows to pluck
Em                 Em7 
For the rain to gather
Bm                  D
For the wind to suck
G       G#m      G
For the sun to rot
F#m         F#      Em
For the leaves to drop
A     
Here is
G        F#         Bm    Em  A  Bm  
Strange and bitter crop
