[C]
[C]
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night, [G] someone was killed [Fm] beneath a town [C]
hall light.
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed, that [G] the slayer who ran [F] looked a lot like [C] me.
She walks these hills in a long black veil.
She visits by and great [F] when the night [C] winds wail.
Nobody [F] knows, nobody sees, nobody [G] knows but me.
Judge said, son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else, then [C] you won't have to die.
Well, I said not a word, though it meant my life, for [G] I've been in the arms [F] of my [C] best friend's wife.
[F] She walks [C]
these hills [F] in a long [C] black veil.
[F] She visits [C] by and great when [F] the night [C] winds wail.
Nobody [F] knows, [C] nobody sees, [F] nobody [G] knows [C] but me.
Oh, now the scaffold is high, eternity is near.
[G] She stood in the crowd [F] and shed [C] not a tear.
Oh, sometimes at night, when the cold winds blow, in [G] a long black veil, she [F] cries [C] over my bone.
[F] She walks [C] these hills [F] in a long [C] black veil.
[F] She visits [C] by and great when the [F] night winds wail.
Nobody knows, nobody sees, [F] nobody [G]
[C] knows but me.
