Lyrics of 'Long Black Veil' by Dave Matthews Band
Ten years ago, on a cold, dark night
Someone was killed
Beneath 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
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
The judge said
"Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else
Then you won't have to die"
Well, I said not a word
Though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms
Of my best friend's wife
Oh, 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
Oh now, the scaffold was high
Eternity is near
She stood in the crowd
And shed not a tear
Oh, sometimes at night
When the cold winds blow
In a Long Black Veil
She stands over 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
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
