D C G If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die" I spoke not a word although it meant my life, D C G I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife C G C G She walks these hills in a long black veil; C G C G she visits my grave where the night winds wail C G Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees, D C G nobody knows but me G The scaffold was high and eternity neared, D C G she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans, D C G in a long black veil she cries over my bones C G C G She walks these hills in a long black veil; C G C G she visits my grave where the night winds wail C G Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees, D C G nobody knows but me D C G nobody knows but me Set8 http://sites.google.com/site/guitarmusicchordsandlyrics/
