Long Black Veil The Wolfe Tones

Long Black Veil - The Wolfe Tones
Ten years ago on cold, dark night
Someone was killed by the town hall light
The people who say, they all agreed
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
Visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows; nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

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, though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife

[Chorus]
Shе walks these hills in a long black veil
Visits my gravе when the night winds wail
Nobody knows; nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

The scaffold is high, eternity's near
She stands the in the crowd, she sheds not a tear
But sometimes at night when the cold winds moan
In her long black veil she cries o'er my bones
