Ten yeGars ago on a cool dark night
There was someoneD killed 'neath the town hall light C G
GThere were few at the scene and they all did agree
That the man wDho ran looked a lot like me C G
The judge said "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"
I spoke not a word although it meant my life
I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife
She walkCs these hills in aG long blackC veil G
She visiCts my grave wGhere the night winds waiCl G
GNobody knows, no, and nobody sees C G
CNobody knowsG but me D C
The scaffold was high and eternity neared
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
In a long black veil she cries over my bones
