[INTRO]
[Em] [G] [Em] [D]

[VERSE]
[G]Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
There was [D]someone killed, 'neath the [C]town hall [G]lights
Just a few at the scene, but they all did agree
That the [D]man who ran looked a [C]lot like [G]me
The judge said son, what is your alibi
If you were [D]somewhere else, then you [C]won't have to [G]die
Well I spoke not a word, although it meant my life
I'd [D]been in the arms of my [C]best friend's [G]wife

[CHORUS 1]
She [C]walks these [G]hills, in a [C]long black [G]veil
She [C]visits my [G]grave, when the [C]night winds [G]wail
Nobody knows, lord, [C]nobody [G]sees, [C]nobody [D]knows but [Em]me

[VERSE]
Well the [G]scaffold was high, and eternity near
She [D]stood in the crowd, and [C]shed not a [G]tear
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans
In a [D]long black veil, she [C]cries all over my [G]bones

[CHORUS 2]
She [C]walks these [G]hills, in a [C]long black [G]veil
She [C]visits my [G]grave, when [C]the night winds [G]wail
Nobody knows, [C]nobody [G]sees, [C]nobody [D]knows but [Em]me
[G]Nobody knows, [C]nobody [G]sees, [C]nobody [D]knows but [Em]me
