Frankie and me we were lovers, oh Lordy how we could love;
F                          F7             F       Fm     C
Swore we'd be true to each other, just as true as stars above,
C7        G                  G7        C
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong.

C          G          C                     G         C     C7
My luck in poker was fading, when a new gal caught my eye;
F                               F7           F           Fm     C
I gambled, I tried to change my luck, with a chick named Nellie Bly,
C7                   G         G7        C
I was Frankie's man, but I was doing her wrong.

C                  G          C                        G           C      C7
Yeah! Frankie came looking to find me, yes, she wasn't looking for fun;
F                       F7            F        Fm  C
For in her sweet loving hand, she was totin' a 44  gun,
C7           G              G7        C
To shoot her man, if he was doin' her wrong.

There was her loving Johnny, making love to that Nellie Bly,

Frankie, I beg, please don't shoot me, well they'll put you away in a cell;   
G                                  G7                        G       Gm        D     
You know they'll put you where the cold wind blows, from the hottest corner in hell,   
D7       A             A7       D     
I'm your man, I know I done you wrong.   

D#                A#         D#          A#          D#    D#7 
Easy on the roll, real easy, easy on the roll, real slow;  
G#                G#7              G#    G#m      D# 
Roll me over real gently, cause my wound hurts me so,  
D#7            A#          A#7      D# 
Well I was her man, well I done her wrong.

Well Frankie told Johnny, well this is the end of my song;  
A         A7        A      Am  E  
I was her man, well I done her wrong,  
E7     B                      B7       E  
Well , hey, hey, hey, hey,    done her wrong.
