[Verse 1] *
G
Ten years ago on a cool dark night
D C G
There was someone killed beneath the town hall light
G
There were few at the scene and they all did agree
D C G
That the man who ran looked a lot like me
[Verse 2]
G
The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
D C G
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"
G
I spoke not a word although it meant my life
D C G
I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife
[Chorus]
C G C G
She walks these hills in a long black veil
C G C G
She visits my grave where the night winds wail
G C G
Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees
C D C G
Nobody knows but me
[Verse 3]
G
The scaffold was high and eternity neared
D C G
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
G
But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
D C G
In a long black veil she cries over my bones
[Chorus]
C G C G
She walks these hills in a long black veil
C G C G
She visits my grave where the night winds wail
G C G
Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees
C D C G
Nobody knows but me
