Eventually.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
This _ is one of them. _ _ _
_ [Ebm] Tell them who sang this one.
Jeff Tweedy is singing on [G] this with me on the record.
Alright.
[Bb] Yeah. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Ten years ago
on a cold dark night
[F] there was someone killed
[Eb] beneath a town [Bb] hall.
There were [Bbm] few at the scene
but they all did agree
[F] that the slayer who ran
[Eb]
looked a lot like [Bb] _ _ me.
[Bbm] Your son said,
son what is your path?
_ _ [F] If you were somewhere else
then you won't have to think.
I spoke not a word
though it [Bb] meant my life
[F] for I'd been in the arms
of my [Bb] best friend's wife.
_ [Eb] She walks these hills
in a long [Bb] black _ veil.
[Eb] She visits [Bb] my grave
when the night winds _ _ _ wave.
Nobody knows [Eb] nobody [Bb] sees [Eb] nobody [F] knows.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] The scaffold is high
and eternity near.
[F] He stood in the crowd
[Bb] and shed not a tear
but [Bbm] sometimes at night
when the cold wind [C] moans
[F] in a long black veil
she [Bb] cries on.
_ _ She walks these hills
[Eb] in a long [Bb] black veil.
She visits my grave
[Eb] when the night [Bb] winds wave. _
_ Nobody knows
[Ebm] nobody _ [Bb] sees
[F] nobody [Bb] knows me. _ _ _
_ Nobody [Eb] knows nobody [Gm] sees
[Eb] _ [Fm] nobody knows.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
