Long Black Veil

(traditional)

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

(Chorus)

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)
