Johnny Cash - The Long Black Veil: Ukulele Chords

C
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
 G7                             F         C
Someone was killed beneath the town hall light
C
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
           G7                     F        C
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

Chorus:
     F           C
She walks these hills
      F          C
In a long black veil
     F          C
She visits my grave
          F           C
When the night winds wail
             F       C
Nobody knows nobody sees
F       G7        C
Nobody knows but 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
I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife

Now the scaffold seemed high, and eternity was near
She stood in the crowd, but she shed not a tear
But some times at night when the cold wind calls
She comes to my grave and she moans o'er my bones

Chorus

She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
