Lirik & Kunci Gitar The Long Black Veil
[Intro]
E B A B E
[Verse 1]
E B A E
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night, someone was killed beneath the town hall light
B A E
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed that the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
[Verse 2]
E B A E
The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi? If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die"
B A E
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life, for I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife
[Chorus]
A E A E
She walks these hills in a long black veil
A E A E
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
A E
Nobody knows, nobody sees
A B E
Nobody knows but me
[Verse 3]
E B A E
The scaffold was high and eternity near, she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
B A E
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans, in a long black veil she weeps o'er my bones
[Chorus]
A E A E
She walks these hills in a long black veil
A E A E
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
A E
Nobody knows, nobody sees
A B E
Nobody knows but me
