[Versetto]GTen years ago on a cool dark nightD C GThere was someone killed beneath the town hall lightGThere were few at the scene and they all did agreeD C GThat the man who ran looked a lot like me[Versetto]GThe judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?D C GIf you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"GI spoke not a word although it meant my lifeD C GI had been in the arms of my best friend's wife[Ritornello]C G C GShe walks these hills in a long black veilC G C GShe visits my grave where the night winds wailG C GNobody knows, no, and nobody seesC D C GNobody knows but me[Versetto]GThe scaffold was high and eternity nearedD C GShe stood in the crowd and shed not a tearGBut sometimes at night when the cold wind moansD C GIn a long black veil she cries over my bones[Ritornello]C G C GShe walks these hills in a long black veilC G C GShe visits my grave where the night winds wailG C GNobody knows, no, and nobody seesC D C GNobody knows but me
