Long Black Veil - Marijohn Wilkins/Danny Dill
==============================================
G / / / | | | |
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night, there was
D | |C |G | |
someone killed `neath the Town Hall light. There were
| | | |
few at the scene, but they all agreed that the
D | |C |G |
man who ran looked a lot like me. She

(Chorus)
C |G |C |G | |
walks these hill in a long black veil. She
C |G |C |G | |
visits my grave while the night winds wail.
| |C | |
Nobody knows, nobody sees,
C |D |G |
Nobody knows but me.

The judge said: Son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you don`t have to die.
I spoke not a word though it ment my life
For I`d been in the arms of my best friends wife.
(Chorus)

The scaffold was high and eternity was near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear.
But sometimes at night when the cold winds moan
In a long black veil she cries over my bones.
(Chorus)
