I go out [C] walking after [C7] midnight
Out in the [F] moonlight just like we used to do
I'm always [C] walking after [F] midnight
[G7] Searching for [C] you [G7]
I walk for [C] miles along the [C7] highway
Well that's just [F] my way of saying I love you
I'm always [C] walking after [F] midnight
[G7] Searching for [C] you [C7]
I stopped to [F] see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow [C] maybe he's crying for me [C7]
And [F] as the skies turn gloomy
Night winds whisper to me
I'm [C] lonesome as I can [G7] be
I go out [C] walking after [C7] midnight
Out in the [F] starlight just hoping you may be
Somewhere a [C] walking after [F] midnight
[G7] Searching for [C] me [C7]
I stopped to [F] see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow [C] maybe he's crying for me [C7]
And [F] as the skies turn gloomy
Night winds whisper to me
I'm [C] lonesome as I can [G7] be
I go out [C] walking after [C7] midnight
Out in the [F] starlight just hoping you may be
Somewhere a [C] walking after [F] midnight
[G7] Searching for [C] me
[C] Somewhere a walking after [F] midnight
[G7] Searching for [C] me

Long Black Veil
Lefty Frizzel (Wilken/Dill, 1959)
4/4 | d - D u d - D u |
1 2 & 3 4 &
[C] Ten years ago on a cold dark night
There was [G7] someone killed 'neath the [F] town hall [C] light
[C] There were few at the scene but they all agreed
That the [G7] slayer who ran looked a [F] lot like [C] me
The [C] judge said son what is your alibi
If you were [G7] somewhere else then [F] you won't have to [C] die
[C] I spoke not a word though it meant my life
For I had [G7] been in the arms of my [F] best friend's [C] wife
She [F] walks these [C] hills in a [F] long black [C] veil
She [F] visits my [C] grave when the [F] night winds [C] wail
[C] Nobody knows [F] nobody [C] sees
[F] Nobody [G7] knows but [C] me
The [C] scaffold's high and eternity near
She [G7] stood in the crowd and [F] shed not a [C] tear
[C] But sometimes at night when the cold wind blows
In a [G7] long black veil she [F] cries o'er my [C] bones
She [F] walks these [C] hills in a [F] long black [C] veil
She [F] visits my [C] grave when the [F] night winds [C] wail
[C] Nobody knows [F] nobody [C] sees
[F] Nobody [G7] knows but [C] me
[F] Nobody [G7] knows but [C] me
[F] Nobody [G7] knows but [C] me.
