Verse 1
D
Ten years ago,
on a cold dark night
A
Someone was killed
G
D
near the town hall lights
There were few at the scene,
but they all agreed
A
That the slayer who ran
G
D
looked a lot like me
The judge said, girl, what is your alibi?
A
If you were somewhere else,
G

then you won't have to die
But I spoke not a word,
though it meant my life
A
For I have been in the arms
G

of my be st friend's wife
G

And she walks these hills
G

in a long black veil

And this is my grave
G

where the night wind wails

Nobody knows and nobody sees

Nobody knows,
A

nobody needs

She vis its my grave
G

and cries over my bones
