Long Black Veil Lyrics

[00:00.32]	Artist：joan baez
[00:01.02]	Songs Title：long black veil
[00:02.58]
[00:08.94]	Ten years ago on a cold dark night,
[00:15.61]	Someone was killed ‘neath the Town Hall light
[00:24.28]	The people who saw they all agreed
[00:31.21]	That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.
[00:43.51]	The judge said, “son, what is your alibi?
[00:49.99]	If you were somewheres else,
[00:53.61]	Then you won’t have to die”.
[00:58.92]	I spoke not a word, though it meant my life,
[01:05.73]	For I’d been in the arms of my best friend’s wife.
[01:14.43]	She walks these hills in a long black veil,
[01:22.74]	Visits my grave when the night winds wail,
[01:31.91]	Nobody knows, nobody sees,
[01:38.97]	Nobody knows, but me.
[01:48.95]	The scaffold is high, eternity near,
[01:56.13]	She stands in the crowd, she sheds not a tear,
[02:04.56]	But sometimes at night, when the cold winds moan,
[02:11.36]	In a long black veil she cries o’er my bones.
[02:19.40]	She walks these hills in a long black veil,
[02:29.14]	Visits my grave when the night winds wail,
[02:37.44]	Nobody knows, nobody sees,
[02:44.37]	Nobody knows, but me.
