G                                               
Ten years ago on a cold dark night 
      D      D7              C         G 
There was someone shot 'neath the town hall light 
 G                      
Few were at the scene but they all agree 
    D            D7               C        G 
That the man did the shooting looked a lot like me 
 
The judge said "Son, what is your alibi 

If you were somewhere else you won't have to die" 

I spoke not a word, though it meant my life 

For I'd been in the arms of my best friends wife 
 
Refrão 
   C       G           C     D7    G 
She walks these hills in a long black veil 
   C     G               C     D7      G 
She visits my grave while the night winds wail 
       B7     C      G 
Nobody knows, nobody sees, 
A7      D7       G 
Nobody knows but me
 
 
The scaffold was high, and eternity near 
She stood in the crowd, but she shed not a tear 
But sometimes late at night, when the cold wind moans 
She visits my grave, and she cries o'er my bones 
 
(Chorus)
