Frankie And Johnny ***
( G ) Now Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts
Oh Lord how they did love
( C )Swore to be true to each other true as the stars ( G ) above
He was her ( D7 ) man but he wouldn't do her ( G ) wrong
Now Frankie went down to the corner
Just for a bucket of beer
She ( C ) said Mr. Bartender has my loving Johnny been ( G ) here
He's my ( D7 ) man he wouldn't do me ( G ) wrong
I don't want to cause you no trouble
Woman I ain't gonna lie
But ( C ) I saw your lover an hour ago with a girl named Nellie( G )
He's your ( D7 ) man but he's doing you ( G ) wrong
Now Frankie looked over the transom
She saw to her surprise
There ( C )on the couch sat Johnny making love to Nellie ( G )
He's my ( D7 ) man but he's doing me ( G ) wrong
Frankie threw back her Kimono
Took out her little 44
Rutty ( C ) too-too three times she shot right through that hardwood ( G ) door
Shot her ( D7 )man he was doing her ( G ) wrong
Now bring out your rubber tired hearses
Bring out your rubber tired hack
I'm ( C ) taken my man to the graveyard and I ain't gonna bring him ( G ) back
He was my ( D7 ) man but he done me ( G ) wrong
Bring round a thousand policemen
Bring 'em around today
To ( C )lock me down in that dungeon cell and throw that key ( G ) away
I shot my ( D7 ) man he was doing me ( G ) wrong
Now Frankie she said to the warden
What are they going to do
The ( C ) warden he said to Frankie it's the electric chair for ( G ) you
You shot your ( D7 ) man he was doing you ( G ) wrong
Now this story has no moral
This story has no end
This ( C )story just goes to show that there ain't no good in ( G) man
He was her ( D7 ) man but he done her ( G ) wrong
