[Verse]
ETen years ago, on a cold dark night,
B7there was someone killed 'neath the tAown hall lEight
EThere were few at the scene, but they all agreed
that the mB7an who ran looked a lAot like Eme
AsusShe walks these Ehills in a lAsusong black Eveil
AsusShe visits my grEave while thAsuse night windE wails.
ENobody knows, NAobody sEees, ANobody Bknows but Eme
EThe judge said "Son, what is your alibi?
If you wB7ere somewhere else, then you Awon't have to Edie
EWell, I said not a word, though it meant my life
For I'd B7been in the arms of my Abest friends Ewife
AsusShe walks these Ehills in a lAsusong black Eveil
AsusShe visits my grEave while thAsuse night windE wails.
ENobody knows, NAobody sEees, ANobody Bknows but Eme
EThe scaffold was high, and eternity neared
B7She stood in the crowd and sAhed not a Etear
EBut sometimes at night, when the cold wind blows
B7In a long black veil, she cAries over my Ebones
AsusShe walks these Ehills in a lAsusong black Eveil
AsusShe visits my grEave while thAsuse night windE wails.
ENobody knows, NAobody sEees, ANobody Bknows but Eme
