[Verse 1]
Ten years ago on a cold, dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall light
Few at the scene, but they all did agree
That the man who ran looked a lot like me
[Verse 2]
Judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else, you won't have to die"
I said not a word, though it meant my life
I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, oh and, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
[Verse 2]
Scaffold was high, and etеrnity near
She stood in the crowd, and shе shed not a tear
Sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
A long black veil she cries over my bones
[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, oh and, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
Ten years ago on a cold, dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall light
Few at the scene, but they all did agree
That the man who ran looked a lot like me
[Verse 2]
Judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else, you won't have to die"
I said not a word, though it meant my life
I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, oh and, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
[Verse 2]
Scaffold was high, and etеrnity near
She stood in the crowd, and shе shed not a tear
Sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
A long black veil she cries over my bones
[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, oh and, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
