INTRO:
C-F-C

VERSE 1:

C
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
G7                              F            C
Someone was killed, 'neath the town hall light
C
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
           G7                      F       C
That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me

CHORUS:

      F          C           F          C 
She walks these hills in a long black veil
      F         C              F          C
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
               F      C
Nobody knows, nobody sees
F        G7       C 
Nobody knows but me

VERSE 2:

      C                            
The judge said son, what is your alibi
             G7                       F             C 
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die
C
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life
         G7                     F             C
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife


VERSE 3:
      c        
Now the scaffold is high and eternity's near
      G7                     F         C
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
C
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans
      G7                    F             C
In a long black veil, she cries o'er my bones

CHORUS:

      F          C           F          C 
She walks these hills in a long black veil
      F         C              F          C
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
               F      C
Nobody knows, nobody sees
F        G7       C
Nobody knows but me
