The Long Black Veil chords by Eugene Brosnan
Verse 1
G
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
D
There was somebody killed
C
G
beneath the town hall light
There was few at the scene,
but they all agreed
D
That the slayer who ran
C
G
looked a lot like me
C
G
C
G
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave
C
G
when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees,
D
G
nobody knows but me
The judge said, son,
what is your alibi?
D
If you were somewhere else,
Bm
C

you won't have to die
I said not a word,
but what meant my life
D
I was laying in the arms
C

of my be st friend's wife

She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave
C

when the night winds wail
C

Nobody knows, nobody sees,
C

Now the scaffold is high
and eternity's near
D
And she stood in the crowd
C

and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night
D
when cold wind blows in
a long black veil
C
G
she cries over my bones
C

she walks these hills in a long black veil
C

she visits my grave

when the night winds wave
C

Nobody knows, nobody sees,
C

D
G
nobody knows but me.
C

Nobody knows, nobody sees,

nobody knows but me.
