Key: F
Introduction:
F Dm
When I hear the rain a coming down
Bb C
It makes me sad and blue
F Dm
Was on a rainy night like this
Bb C
That Flo said we were through
F Dm
I told her how I loved her and
Bb C
I begged her not to go
F Dm
But another man had stole her heart
Bb C
So I said goodbye to Flo
F Dm
Alone within my cell tonight
Bb C
My heart is filled with fear
F Dm
The only sound within the room
Bb C
Is the falling of each tear
F Dm
I think about the thing I've done
Bb C
I know it wasn't right
F Dm
They'll bury Flo tomorrow but
Bb F
They're hangin me tonight
Bb F
They're hangin me tonight
F Dm
That night he came and took my Flo
Bb C
And headed in to town
F Dm
I knew I'd have to find this man
Bb C
And try to gun him down
F Dm
As I walked by a dim cafe
Bb C
And I looked through the door
F Dm
I saw my Flo with her new love
Bb F
And I couldn't stand no more,
Bb F
I couldn't stand no more
F Dm
I took my pistol from my hip
Bb C
And with a trembling hand
F Dm
I took the life of pretty Flo
Bb F
And that good for nothing man
Bb F
That good for nothing man
(Chorus)
F Dm
I think about the thing I've done
Bb C
I know it wasn't right
F Dm
They'll bury Flo tomorrow but
Bb F
They're hangin me tonight
Bb F
They're hangin me tonight
