Verse 1
on a cold dark night,
Bb
F
beat the town whole light.
There were few at the scene,
but they all agreed
Bb
F
looked a lot like me
Well, the judge said, son,
what is your alibi?
Bb
F
and you won't have to die
Bb
F
But I spoke not a word,
although it meant my life
Bb
F
of my best friend's wife
Bb
F
She walks these hills
Bb
F
in a long black veil
Bb
F
Visits my grave
Bb
F
Bb
when the night winds wave
F
Bb
F
Nobody knows, nobody sees,
Bb
C
F
Bb
F
Bb
F
nobody knows but me
Now the scaffold is high, eternity's near
Bb
F
but shed not a tear
And sometimes at night,
when the cold wind moans
C
Bb
In a long black veil, she cries,
Bb
F
She walks these hills
C
Bb
F
in a long black veil.
Bb
F
Bb
Visits my grave when the night winds
Bb
F
nobody sees,
Bb
C

Gm
nobody knows but me.
