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