Long Black Veil chords by Troy Cassar-Daley

Verse 1
D
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
A
There was someone killed,
G
neath the town hall light
D
There were few at the scene
But they all agreed
A
That the slayer who ran
G
D
Looked a lot like me
A
D
The judge said, What is your alibi
A
If you were somewhere else,
G
D
you won't have to die
I spoke not a word,
though it meant my life
A
For I had been in the arms
G
D
of my best friend's wife
G
D
She walks these hills
G
D
in a long black veil
G
D
She visits my grave
G
D
when the night winds wail
G
D
Nobody knows, nobody sees
G
A
D
Nobody knows but me
The scaffold was high
and eternity near
A
She stood in the crowd
G
D
and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night
when the cold wind moans
A
In a long black veil
G
D
she cries over my bones
G
D
She walks these hills
G
D
in a long black veil
G
D
She visits my grave
G
D
when the night winds wail
G
D
Nobody knows, nobody sees
G
A
D
Nobody knows but me
G
A
Nobody knows but me
D
