[F#]
[C#m] [F#] [C#] [F#]
[C#] Ten years ago, [F#] on a cold dark night, [C#] someone was killed [B] beneath the town [C#] hall light.
[F#] [C#]
There were few [F#] at the scene, though they all agreed that the slayer who ran [B] looked a lot [C#] like me.
[F#] [C#] The judge said, son, what is your [F#] alibi?
[C#] If you were somewhere else, [B] you won't [F#] have to die.
[C#] I spoke not a word, though it meant my life.
I had been in the arms [B] of my best [F#] friend's wife.
[B] And she [F#] walks these [B] hills in a long black veil.
[C#] She [F#] visits my grave when the night wind wails.
[C#]
Nobody [B] knows, [C#] nobody sees, [B]
nobody [C#] knows but me.
Scaffold was high, an eternity near.
She stood in the crowd, [B] but she [F#] had not a tear.
[C#] Sometimes at night, when that cold wind moans, she cries over my grave [B] and cries over [F#] my bones.
And [B] she walks [F#] these hills [B] in a long [F#] black veil.
She [B] visits [F#] my grave [B] when the night wind [F#] wails.
[C#] Nobody knows, [F#] nobody sees, [B] nobody [C#] knows but me.
[D#] [C#] [E] [C#]
