Ten yeaCrs ago on a cold, dark night, G Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights.F C
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
That the slayeGr who ran looked a lot like me. F C She walFks these hills in Ca long blackF veil. C She visFits my grave wChen the night winds waiFl. C Nobody knows, nobody sFees. C F Nobody knows Gbut me. C
Interlude: | F | C | F | C | | C | C | C | C |
The judCge said, "Son, what is your alibi? If you were somewherGe else, then you won't have to dFie." C
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life,
For I'd beeGn in the arms of my best friend's wFife. C Now the scaffolCd is high, and eternity's near. G She stood in a crowd and shed not a teaFr. C
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans,
In a loGng black veil she cries o'er Fmy bones. C She walFks these hills in Ca long blackF veil. C She visFits my grave wChen the night winds waiFl. C Nobody knows, nobody sFees. C F Nobody knows Gbut me. C C Nobody knows, nobodFy sees. C F Nobody knows Gbut me. C
