Johnny Flynn - Long Black Veil lyrics

Your rating:

Ten years ago on a cold dark night
There was someone killed 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
And nobody knows and nobody sees
And nobody knows but me

The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else, well, then you won't have to die"
And I spoke not a word though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friends wife

She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows and nobody sees
And nobody knows but me

The scaffold was high and eternity near
She moved through the crowd and she shed not a tear
Sometimes at night when the cold winds moan
She visits my grave and 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 and nobody sees
And nobody knows but me
