Roy Drusky Lyrics

Long Black Veil Lyrics
Ten years ago on a cold dark night someone was killed neath the town hall light

Just a few at the scene but they all did agreed

That the man who ran looked a lot like me

Well The judge said son what is your alibi

If you were somewhere else well you won't have to die

I spoke not a word though it meant my life

so I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife

She walks these hills in a long black veil

She visits my grave when the night winds wail

Nobody knows love nobody sees nobody knows but me

[ ac.guitar ]

The scaffold was high and eternity near she stands in the crowd and shedes not a tear

But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans

In a long black veil she cries o'er my bones

She walks these hills in a long black Viel she visits my grave when the night winds wail nobody knows love nobody sees nobody knows but me{ac gutair
