Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Ten years ago on a cool,
dark night
[A]There was someone killed
'neath [G]the town hall [D]light
There were few at the scene
but they all did agree
That [A]the slayer who ran
looked a [G]lot like me
[D]

[Verse 2]
The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were [A]somewhere else
then [G]you won't have [D]to die"
I spoke not a word although it meant my life
For I had [A]been in the arms of
my [G]best friend's wife
[D]

[Verse 3]
She [G]walks these [D]hills in a [G]long black [D]veil
She [G]visits my [D]grave when
[G]the night winds [D]wail
Nobody [G]knows, nobody [D]sees
[G]Nobody [A]knows but me
[D]

[Verse 4]
The scaffold is high and eternity is neared
She [A]stood in the crowd
and [G]shed not [D]a tear
But sometimes at night when
the cold wind moans
In [A]a long black veil she
[G]cries over my bones
[D]

[Verse 5]
She [G]walks these [D]hills in [G]a long black [D]veil
She [G]visits my [D]grave when
[G]the night winds [D]wail
Nobody [G]knows, nobody [D]sees
[G]Nobody [A]knows but [D]me, [G]nobody [A]knows but me
[D]
