Long Black Veil chords and lyrics - JOHNNY CASH

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]
[C]Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
[G]Someone was killed,
'neath the [F]town hall [C]light
There were few at the scene,
but they all agreed
That the [G]slayer who ran, looked a [F]lot like [C]me

[Chorus 1]
Now she [F]walks these [C]hills in a [F]long black [C]veil
She [F]visits my [C]grave
when the [F]night winds [C]wail
Nobody [F]knows, nobody [C]sees
[F]Nobody kno[G]ws but me[C]

[Verse 2]
The [C]scaffold is high and eternity's near
[G]She stood in the crowd
[F]and shed not a [C]tear
But sometimes at night,
when the north wind blows
In a [G]long black veil, she [F]cries aver my [C]bones

[Chorus 2]
She [F]walks these [C]hills in a [F]long black [C]veil
She [F]visits my [C]grave
when the [F]night winds [C]wail
Nobody knows, [F]nobody [C]sees
[F]Nobody kno[G]ws but me[C]

[Verse 3]
The [C]judge said son, what is your alibi
If you were [G]somewhere else,
then [F]you won't have to [C]die
I spoke not a word, thou it meant my life
I'd [G]been in the arms
of my [F]best friend's [C]wife

[Chorus 3]
She [F]walks these [C]hills in a [F]long black [C]veil
She [F]visits my [C]grave
when the [F]night winds [C]wail
Nobody [F]knows, nobody [C]sees
[F]Nobody kno[G]ws but me[C]
Nobody [F]knows, nobody [C]sees
[F]Nobody kno[G]ws but me[C]
