AUDIO: Listen to Jennifer Lawrence sing 'The Hanging Tree' from 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1' Score (SPOILER!)

One of the most memorable parts of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 was Jennifer Lawrence's performance of the song, The Hanging Tree. The haunting tune—which came straight from Suzanne Collin's novel—stays in your head hours after watching the film. The incredible melody of the song was written by The Lumineers. If you haven't seen the film yet, we suggest holding it off to have the complete haunting experience for the first time in the theater. We promise it's worth it. But if you have, listen to Jennifer Lawrence's eerily remarkable vocals below.  The Original Motion Picture Score Album by James Newton Howard is now available for purchase on iTunes.

Are you
Are you
Comin’ to the tree
They strung up the man
They say who murdered three
Strange things have happened here
No stranger would it be
If we met
At midnight in the hanging tree

Are you
Are you
Comin’ to the tree
Where a dead man called out
For his love to flee
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met
At midnight in the hanging tree

Are you
Are you
Comin’ to the tree
Where I told you to run
So we’d both be free
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met
At midnight in the hanging tree

Are you
Are you
Comin’ to the tree
Wear a necklace of hope
Side by side with me
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met
At midnight in the hanging tree
