Subject: CRD: Long Black Veil - traditional

Long Black Veil 
(traditional)

G (320003@1)                                            
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
	   D (xx0232@1)    D7 (xx0212@1)            C (x32010@1)       GThere (320003@1)was someone shot 'neath the town hall light
 G (320003@1)                   
Few were at the scene but they all agree
	 D (xx0232@1)          D7 (xx0212@1)             C (x32010@1)      GThat (320003@1)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

(Chorus)
	C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)         C (x32010@1)   D7 (xx0212@1)  GShe (320003@1)walks these hills in a long black veil
	C (x32010@1)   G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)   D7 (xx0212@1)    GShe (320003@1)visits my grave while the night winds wail
       B7 (x21202@1)   C (x32010@1)    GNobody (320003@1)knows, nobody sees,
A7 (x02020@1)    D7 (xx0212@1)     GNobody (320003@1)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)
