The Long Black Veil

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]Ten years ago on a cold dark night
[A]A man was killed underneath
[G]the town hall [D]light
There were few at the scene
but they all agreed
That [A]the slayer who ran,
looked [G]a lot like me
[D]

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

[Verse 3]
She walks [G]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]seems
[G]nobody kno[A]ws but[D] me
The scaf[A]fold [D]is high an eternity nears
She [A]stood in the crowd [G]shed not [D]a tear

[Verse 4]
But [D]sometimes at night when
the cold winds moan
She [A]comes to my grave and
[G]she cries on my [D]bones
She [G]walks these [D]hills in a [G]long black [D]veil
She [G]visits my [D]grave when the
[G]night winds [D]wail
Nobody [G]knows nobody [D]seems
[G]nobody kno[A]ws but[D] me
