Intro 1
(G major)
Verse 1
Ten (G major) years ago,
on a cold dark night,
there was someone (D major) killed
near the (C major) town hall (G major) light.
There were few in the crowd,
and they all did agree
That the (D major) man who ran
looked a (C major) lot like (G major) me
The judge said, son,
what is your alibi?
You were somewhere (D major) else,
then you (C major) won't have to (G major) die
I spoke not a word,
though it meant my life
I had (D major) been in the arms
of my (C major) be st friend's (G major) wife
She walk (C major) s these (G major) hills
in a (C major) long black veil (G major)
She vis (C major) its my grave
(G major) when the (C major) night winds wail (G major)
Nobody knows, nobody (C major) sees, (G major)
nobody (C major) knows but (D major) me (C major) (A minor) (G major)
The scaffold was high
and eternity near
She stood (D major) in the crowd
and she shed (C major) not a (G major) tear
But sometimes at night,
when the cold wind moans
In a (D major) long black veil,
she cries (C major) over my bones (G major)
She walks (C major) these (G major) hills in a (C major) long black veil (G major)
She vis (C major) its my grave
(G major) when the (C major) night winds wail (G major)
Nobody knows, nobody (C major) sees, (G major)
(C major) nobody knows but (D major) me (C major) (A minor)
Nobody (G major) knows, nobody (C major) sees, (G major)
nobody (C major) knows but (D major) me
