[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Frankie and Johnnie [G]were sweethearts
[C]
[G]They had a quarrel one day
[C]Johnny vowed he would leave her
He said he was going away
Never [G]coming [D]home,
goin' away to [G]roam

[Verse 2]
Frankie begged and she [G]pleaded
"My love Johnny please stay"
[C]"Now, oh, my honey,
I've done you wrong
But please don't go away"
[G]Then Johnny sig[D]hed, while Frankie cri[G]ed
Oh, I'm a- [C]going away, I'm

[Verse 3]
[C]
a- goin' to stay
Never coming [G]home
You're gonna [D]miss me, honey,
in the days to come
When the [G]winter winds begin to blow, the
ground is covered up
And when you [C]think of the way,
you're gonna wish me back
Your lovin' [G]man
You're gonna [D]miss me, honey,
in the day they say's to [G]come

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 4]
[G]Frankie done said to her Johnny
"Now man your hour done come"
'Cause [C]from behind her kimono
She drew her [G].44 gun
These love af[D]fairs are
hard to [G]bear
Johnny, he fled down the stairway
"My love, Frankie, don't shoot"
[C]Frankie done aimed the .44
While the town went rooty- toot- [G]toot
As Johnny [D]fell, then Frankie [G]yelled

[Verse 5]
Oh, I'm a- [C]going away,
I'm a- goin' to stay
Never coming [G]home
You're gonna [D]miss me, honey,
in the days to come
When the [G]winter winds begin to blow, the
ground is covered up
And when you [C]think of the way,
you're gonna wish me back
Your lovin' [G]man
You're gonna [D]miss me, honey,
in the day they say's to [G]come

[Interlude 2]
[G]

[Verse 6]
[G]Send for your rubber tired Hearses
Send for your rubber tired hacks
[C]Carry old Johnny to the graveyard
I've shot him in the [G]back
With a great big [D]gun as the
preacher [G]begun
Send for some policeman
to take me right away
[C]Lock me down in the dungeon cell
And throw the key away
[G]My Johnny's dea[D]d because he [G]said

[Verse 7]
Oh, I'm a- [C]going away,
I'm a- goin' to stay
Never coming [G]home
You're gonna [D]miss me, honey
In the days to come
When the [G]winter winds begin to blow
The ground is covered up
And when you [C]think of the way
You're gonna wish me back,
your lovin' [G]man
You're gonna [D]miss me, honey
In the day they say's to [G]come

[Outro 1]
