Introdução:
C
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
G7 F C
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall light
C
Just a few at the scene, and they all did agree
G7 F C
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
C
The judge said "Son, what is your alibi?
G7 F C
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die"
C
I spoke not a word, although it meant my life
G7 F C
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
F C F C
She walks these hills in a long black veil
F C F C
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
C C7 F C
Nobody knows, nobody sees
F G7 C
Nobody knows, but me
C
The scaffold was high, and eternity near
G7 F C
She stood in the crowd, and shed not a tear
C
But sometimes at night when the cold winds moan
G7 F C
In a long black veil, she cries o'er my bones
Chorus
