Standard (EADGBE)

 Ten years ago on a cold dark night

 There was someone shot 'neath the town hall light

 Few were at the scene but they all agree

 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)

 She walks these hills in a long black veil

 She visits my grave while the night winds wail

 Nobody knows, nobody sees,

 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)
