Verse 1
C# C# 
 
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
Ten years ago
on a cold dark night
C# C# 
 
There was somebody killed
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
Neath the town hall light
The folks that saw it
C# C# 
 
All did agree that the person who ran
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
Looked a  lot like me
F# F# 
 
I just said, wash your alibi
C# C# 
 
If you were somewhere else
B B 
 
You don't have to die
F# F# 
 
I   spoke not a word
Oh, it cost me my life
C# C# 
 
I was locked in the arms
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
Well, my best friend's wife,
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
she walks these hills
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
in long black veins,
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
lovers migraine,
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
where the night winds wave.
Nobody knows, darlin',
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
nobody sees
C# C# 
 
B B 
 
Nobody knows but
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
C# C# 
 
me
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
The hour drew nigh,
and eternity knew
C# C# 
 
She stood in the crowd,
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night
when the cold winds moan
C# C# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
In a long black veil she cries all alone
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
She walks these hills in
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
a long black veil
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
Hovers my grave
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
where the night winds wave
F# F# 
 
Nobody knows, Lord,
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
and nobody sees
C# C# 
 
B B 
 
Nobody knows
F# F# 
 
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
but me
Nobody knows, Lord,
B B 
 
F# F# 
 
and nobody sees
C# C# 
 
B B 
 
Nobody knows
