“Long Black Veil” – Mike Ness
Capo 1
[Intro]
E E/B E E/B E E/B E E/B
[Verse 1]
E E/B E E/B E E/B E
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
E/B B B/F# B B/F# A A/E E E/B
There was someone killed 'neath the town hall light
E E/B E E/B E E/B E
There were few at the scene but they all a---greed
E/B B B/F# B B/F# A A/E E E/B E E/B
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
[Verse 2]
E E/B E E/B E E/B E E/B
The judge said, "Son, what is your al-ib--i?
B B/F# B B/F# A A/E E E/B
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die"
E E/B E E/B E E/B E E/B
I spoke not a word, thou it meant my life
B B/F# B B/F# A A/E E E/B E E/B
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
[Chorus]
A E A E
She walks these hills in a long black veil
A E A E
She visits my grave when the cold winds wail
E A E
Nobody knows, nobody sees
A B E
Nobody knows but me
[Verse 3]
E
The sky has turned dark, eternity's near
B A E
She stands in the crowd, she sheds not a tear
E
And sometimes at night, when the cold winds moan
B A E
In a long black veil, she cries over my bones
[Chorus]
A E A E
She walks these hills in a long black veil
A E A E E
She visits my grave when the cold winds wail
E A E
Nobody knows, nobody sees
A B E
Nobody knows but me
[Outro]
A B E
Nobody knows but me
A B E
Nobody knows but me
