[Intro] F  Dm  Bb  C

F                Dm
When I hear the rain a coming down
    F              Dm
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
     F             Dm
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
     F                Dm
My heart is filled with fear
       F                Dm
The only sound within the room
       Bb                C
Is the falling of each tear

[Estribillo]

   F              Dm
I think about the thing I've done
  F              Dm
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
     F            Dm
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
    F                    Dm
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
     F                 Dm
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

[Estribillo]

   F                Dm
I think about the thing I've done
   F                Dm
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
