Verse 1
(D major) Ten years ago, on a cold, night,
There (G major) was someone (A major) killed, (A minor)
neath the town (G major) hall (D major) light.
There were few on the scene,
but they did agree
That the (G major) slayer (A major) who (A minor) ran
looked a (G major) lot like (D major) me
The judge said, son,
what is your alibi?
If (G major) you were (A major) somewhere's (A minor) else,
then you (G major) won't have to (D major) die
But I spoke not one word,
although it meant my life
For (G major) I'd (A major) been in (A minor) the arms
of my (G major) best friend's wife (D major)
She walk (G major) s these (D major) hills
in a (G major) long black veil (D major)
She vis (G major) its my grave
(D major) when the night (G major) winds wail (A major) (D major)
Nobody knows and (G major) nobody sees (D major)
Nobody (G major) knows (A major) but me, (D major)
nobody (G major) knows (A major) but me (D major)
That scaffold was high
and eternity near
But she (G major) stood (A major) in (A minor) the crowd
and shed (G major) not one tear (D major)
But sometimes at night
when the cold wind moans
In a long (A major) black (A minor) veil
she (G major) cries o 'er my bones (D major)
She walks (G major) these (D major) hills in a long (G major) black veil (D major)
She vis (G major) its my grave (D major)
when the night (G major) winds wave (A major) (D major)
Nobody knows and (G major) nobody sees (D major)
Nobody (G major) knows (A major) (E minor) (A major) but (D major) me
Nobody (G major) knows (A major) but me (D major)
Thank
The Long Black Veil
