CTen years ago on a cold, dark night,
G F C Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights.
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
G F CThat the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.
F C F CShe walks these hills in a long black veil.
F C F CShe visits my grave when the night winds wail.
F CNobody knows, nobody sees.
F G C Nobody knows but me.

C The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
G F CIf you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die."
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life,
G F CFor I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife.
CNow the scaffold is high, and eternity's near.
G F C She stood in a crowd and shed not a tear.
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans,
G F CIn a long black veil she cries o'er my bones.
F C F CShe walks these hills in a long black veil.
F C F CShe visits my grave when the night winds wail.
F CNobody knows, nobody sees.
F G C Nobody knows but me.
C F C Nobody knows, nobody sees.
F G C Nobody knows but me.
