SOL
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
RE RE7 DO SOL
There was someone shot 'neath the town hall light
SOL
Few were at the scene but they all agree
RE RE7 DO SOL
That the man did the shooting looked a lot like me
The judge said "Son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else 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 friends wife
(Chorus)
DO SOL DO RE7 SOL
She walks these hills in a long black veil
DO SOL DO RE7 SOL
She visits my grave while the night winds wail
SI7 DO SOL
Nobody knows, nobody sees,
LA7 RE7 SOL
Nobody knows but me
The scaffold was high, and eternity near
She stood in the crowd, but she shed not a tear
But sometimes late at night, when the cold wind moans
She visits my grave, and she cries o'er my bones
(Chorus)
