  • Verse 1

    Ten 
    years 
    ago, 
    on 
    cold 
    dark 
    night 

    Someone 
    was 
    killed, 

    'neath 
    the 
    town 
    hall 
    light 

    There 
    were 
    few 
    at 
    the 
    scene, 

    but 
    they 
    all 
    agreed 

    That 
    the 
    slayer 
    who 
    ran, 
    looked 
    lot 
    like 
    me 

    Chorus 1
    Now 
    she 
    walks 
    these 
    hills 
    in 
    long 
    black 
    veil 

    She 
    visits 
    my 
    grave 

    when 
    the 
    night 
    winds 
    wail 

    Nobody 
    knows, 
    nobody 
    sees 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    but 
    me 

    Verse 2
    The 
    scaffold 
    is 
    high 
    and 
    eternity's 
    near 

    She 
    stood 
    in 
    the 
    crowd 

    and 
    shed 
    not 
    tear 

    But 
    sometimes 
    at 
    night, 

    when 
    the 
    north 
    wind 
    blows 

    In 
    long 
    black 
    veil, 
    she 
    cries 
    aver 
    my 
    bones 

    Chorus 2
    She 
    walks 
    these 
    hills 
    in 
    long 
    black 
    veil 

    She 
    visits 
    my 
    grave 

    when 
    the 
    night 
    winds 
    wail 

    Nobody 
    knows, 
    nobody 
    sees 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    but 
    me 

    Verse 3
    The 
    judge 
    said 
    son, 
    what 
    is 
    your 
    alibi 

    If 
    you 
    were 
    somewhere 
    else, 

    then 
    you 
    won't 
    have 
    to 
    die 

    spoke 
    not 
    word, 
    thou 
    it 
    meant 
    my 
    life 

    I'd 
    been 
    in 
    the 
    arms 

    of 
    my 
    best 
    friend's 
    wife 

    Chorus 3
    She 
    walks 
    these 
    hills 
    in 
    long 
    black 
    veil 

    She 
    visits 
    my 
    grave 

    when 
    the 
    night 
    winds 
    wail 

    Nobody 
    knows, 
    nobody 
    sees 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    but 
    me 

    Nobody 
    knows, 
    nobody 
    sees 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    but 
    me

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
