Ten years ago, on a cold dark night, [D] there was someone killed [G] [C] beneath the town [G] hall lights.
There were folks at the scene, and they all agreed [D] that the [G] man who ran [C] looked a lot [G]
like me.
She
[C] [G] walks these hills [C] in a [G] long black veil.
She [C]
visits [G] my grave when [C] the [G] night breaks when nobody knows, [C] [G] nobody sees, [C]
nobody [D] [G] knows but me.

Well the judge said to me, what's your alibi?
[D] If you were somewhere else, [G] [C] well you won't [G] have to die.
Well I spoke not a word, though it made my life.
I [D]
had been in the office, [G] [C] [G] praying his life.
[C] She walks [G]
these hills [C] in a [G] long black veil.
She [C] visits [G] my grave [C] when the [G] night breaks when nobody knows, [C] [G] nobody sees, [C]
nobody [D] knows [G] but me.

the scaffold is high and eternity near.
[D] She stood [G] in the crowd, [C] she shed not [G] a tear.
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind [D] moans in a long black veil,
[G] she [C] [G] weeps over my bones.
She [C] walks these hills in a [G] long black veil.
[C] She visits my grave when the [N] night breaks when nobody knows, nobody sees,
nobody
[G] knows but me.
[C] Nobody knows, nobody [G]
sees, [Em] [G]
nobody knows [Cm] but [G] me.
