Capo 2

Ten years ago, on a cold dark night,

She walks these hills, in a long black veil.

But sometimes at night when the cold wind blows,
D C G
in a long black veil, she cries o'er my bones.
CHORUS:

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.
