C
I hear the rain a coming down
                    Am
It makes me sad and blue
Was on a rainy night like this
     F                C
That Flo said we were through

I told her how I loved and
                    Am
I begged her not to go
But another man had stole her heart
     F               C
So I said goodbye to Flo

Alone within my cell tonight
                        Am
My heart is filled with fear
The only sound within the room
       F                C
Is the falling of each  tear

I think about the thing I've done
                 Am
I know it wasn't right
They'll bury Flo tomorrow but
        F          C
They're hangin me  tonight
        F          C
They're  hangin me tonight

That night he came and took my Flo
                Am
And headed into town
I knew I'd have to find this man
    F              C
And try to gun him down

As I walked by a dim cafe
                         Am
And I looked through the door
I saw my Flo with her new love
      F                  C
And I couldn't stand no  more,
  F                  C
I couldn't stand no  more

I took my pistol from my hip
                     Am
And with a trembling hand
I took the life of pretty Flo
         F                 C
And that good for nothing  man
     F                 C
That good for nothing  man

I think about the thing I've done
                 Am
I know it wasn't right
They'll bury Flo tomorrow but
        F          C
They're hangin me  tonight
        F          C
They're hangin me  tonight
