G
Ten years ago on a cool dark night,
D C G
there was someone killed beneath the town hall light
D C G
that the one who ran looked a lot like me
G
The judge said "Son, what is your alibi?
D C G
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"
D C G
I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife
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
C G
Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees,
D C G
nobody knows but me
G
The scaffold was high and eternity neared,
D C G
she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
D C G
in a long black veil she cries over my bones
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
C G
Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees,
D C G
nobody knows but me
D C G
nobody knows but me
