[C]
Ten years ago on a cold dark night, [G] there was someone cute [F] in the town [C] hall light.
There were few at the scene, but they all did agree, [G] that the slayer who ran [F] looked a lot [C] like me.
The judge said, son, what is your alibi?
[G] You are somewhere else [F] and you won't [C] have to die.
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life, [G] for I'd been in the arms of [F] my best [C] friend's wife.
She [F]
walks [C] these hills [F] in a long black [C]
veil.
[F] She visits [C] my grave [F] where the night [C] winds wail.
Nobody knows, [F]
nobody [C] sees, [F]
nobody [G] knows [F] but me.

[C] She scaffolded high an eternity dear.
[G] She stood in the crowd and [F] shed not [C] a tear.
But sometimes at night when the cold [F] [C] wind moans [G] in a long black veil, [F] she cries over [C] my bones.
[F] She walks [C] these hills [F] in a long [C] black veil.
[F] She visits [C] my grave [F] where the night [C] winds wail.
Nobody knows, [F]
nobody [C] sees, [F]
nobody [G] knows [F] but me.
[C]
Nobody knows, [F]
[C] nobody [F] sees, nobody [G] knows [F] but me.
