   Long Black Veil   
      
   Original Lyrics and Music by Danny Dill and Marijohn Wilkin   
      
   [D]Ten years ago on a cold dark night   
   There was [A]someone killed 'neath the [G]town hall [D]light   
   There were few at the scene, but they all agree   
   That the [A]slayer who ran looked a [G]lot like [D]me   
      
   The judge said son what is your alibi   
   If you were [A]somewhere else then [G]you won't have to [D]die   
   I spoke not a word though it meant my life   
   For I had [A]been in the arms of my [G]best friend's [D]wife   
      
   She [G]walks these [D]hills   
   In a [G]long black [D]veil   
   She [G]visits my [D]grave   
   When the [G]night winds [D]wail   
   Nobody knows, [G]nobody [D]sees,   
   [G]nobody [A]knows but [D]me   
      
   The [D]scaffold's high and eternity near   
   She [A]stood in the crowd and [G]shed not a [D]tear   
   But [D]sometimes at night when the cold wind blows   
   In a [A]long black veil she [G]cries o'er my [D]bones   
      
   She [G]walks these [D]hills   
   In a [G]long black [D]veil   
   She [G]visits my [D]grave   
   When the [G]night winds [D]wail   
   Nobody knows, [G]nobody [D]sees,   
   [G]nobody [A]knows but [D]me   
   [G]Nobody [A]knows but [D]me   
   [G]Nobody [A]knows but [D]me
