GTen (320003@1)years ago on a cool dark night, 
          D (xx0232@1)                        C (x32010@1)       Gthere (320003@1)was someone killed beneath the town hall light
 
There were few at the scene and they all did agree,
         D (xx0232@1)                  C (x32010@1)      Gthat (320003@1)the one who ran looked a lot like me

GThe (320003@1)judge said "Son, what is your alibi? 
            D (xx0232@1)                 C (x32010@1)               GIf (320003@1)you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"

I spoke not a word although it meant my life, 
      D (xx0232@1)                    C (x32010@1)           GI (320003@1)had been in the arms of my best friend's wife

C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)        C (x32010@1)        GShe (320003@1)walks these hills in a long black veil; 
    C (x32010@1)       G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)         Gshe (320003@1)visits my grave where the night winds wail
                      C (x32010@1)    G (320003@1)Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees, 
D (xx0232@1)              C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G
nobody knows but me

GThe (320003@1)scaffold was high and eternity neared, 
    D (xx0232@1)                    C (x32010@1)        Gshe (320003@1)stood in the crowd and shed not a tear

But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans, 
     D (xx0232@1)                 C (x32010@1)           Gin (320003@1)a long black veil she cries over my bones

C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)        C (x32010@1)        GShe (320003@1)walks these hills in a long black veil; 
    C (x32010@1)       G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)         Gshe (320003@1)visits my grave where the night winds wail
                      C (x32010@1)    G (320003@1)Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees, 
D (xx0232@1)              C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G
nobody knows but me

D (xx0232@1)              C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G
nobody knows but me
