D
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
A7 G D
There was someone killed 'neath the town hall light
D
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
A7 G D
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
D
The judge said son what is your alibi
A7 G D
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die
D
I spoke not a word though it meant my life
A7 G D
For I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife
G D G D
She walks these hills in a long black veil
G D G D
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
D G D
Nobody knows nobody sees
G A7 D
Nobody knows but me
D
The scaffold's high and eternity near
A7 G D
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
D
But sometimes at night when the cold wind blows
A7 G D
In a long black veil she cries o'er my bones
G D G D
She walks these hills in a long black veil
G D G D
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
D G D
Nobody knows nobody sees
G A7 D
Nobody knows but me
G A7 D
Nobody knows but me
G A7 D
Nobody knows but me
