Long Black Veil chords
Dill / Wilkin (performed by The Band, The Chieftains, Johnny Cash, Joan Baez, The Byrds
Dave Matthews Band etc.)
FTen years ago on a cool dark night,
there was Gsomeone killed beneath the Ftown hall Flight
There were few at the scene and they all did agree,
that the Gone who ran looked a Flot like Fme
The Fjudge said "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were Gsomewhere else then Fyou won't have to Fdie"
I spoke not a word although it meant my life,
I had Gbeen in the arms of my Fbest friend's Fwife
She Fwalks these Fhills in a Flong black Fveil;
she Fvisits my Fgrave where the Fnight winds Fwail
Nobody knows, no, and Fnobody Fsees,
Gnobody knows but FmeF
The Fscaffold was high and eternity neared,
she Gstood in the crowd and Fshed not a Ftear
But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans,
in a Glong black veil she Fcries over my Fbones
She Fwalks these Fhills in a Flong black Fveil;
she Fvisits my Fgrave where the Fnight winds Fwail
Nobody knows, no, and Fnobody Fsees,
Gnobody knows but FmeF
Gnobody knows but FmeF
