Karaoke Track: Long Black Veil by Lefty Frizzell (Chart Buster) - Karaoke Nerds

TEN YEARS AGO
ON A COLD DARK NIGHT
THERE WAS SOMEONE
KILLED

THERE WERE FEW
AT THE SCENE
BUT THEY ALL AGREED
THAT THE SLAYER
WHO RAN
LOOKED A LOT LIKE ME

THE JUDGE SAID SON
WHAT IS YOUR ALIBI
IF YOU WERE
SOMEINHERE ELSE
THEN YOU WON'T HAVE
TO DIE

I SPOKE NOT A WORD
THOUGH IT MEANT MY LIFE

FOR 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
NOBODY SEES
NOBODY KNOWS

BUT ME

THE SCAFFOLD
WAS HIGH
AND ETERNITY NEAR
SHE STOOD
IN THE CROWD
AND SHED 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 VEIL
SHE VISITS MY GRAVE

WHEN THE NIGHT WINDS

WAIL

NOBODY KNOWS
NOBODY SEES
NOBODY KNOWS BUT ME
NOBODY KNOWS BUT ME

NOBODY KNOWS BUT ME

Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm
