Frank And Jesse James Tabulatur von Warren Zevon (für Baryton)

First Verse:
Dm             F
On a small Missouri farm
     C                 F
Back when the West was young
Dm                  C
Two boys learned to rope and ride
       A#           F
And be handy with a gun
Dm               F
War broke out between the states
         C                  F
And they joined up with Cantrell
           Dm           C
And it was over in Clay County
     A#              C                  F
That Frank and Jesse finally learned to kill


Chorus:
        Dm      C       F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
A#              F
Frank and Jesse James
        Dm      C       F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
  A#                 F
Until you clear your names
        Dm      C       F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
           A#             F
Across the rivers and the plains
        Dm      C       F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
A#               Dm
Frank and... Jesse James

Second Verse:
Dm        F
After Appomadox, 
         C             F
they was on the losing side
      Dm          C
so no amnesty was granted
       A#               F
and as outlaws they did ride
     Dm               F
they rode against the railroads
         C                F
and they rode against the banks 
         Dm               C
and they rode against the governor
A#             C                 F
never did they ask for a word of thanks

Chorus

Third Verse:  
Dm             F
Robert Ford, a gunman,
     C                F
In exchange for his parol
         Dm                C
Took the life of James the outlaw
         A#              F
Which he snuck up on and stole
Dm               F
No one know just where they came
   C          F
To be misunderstood
        Dm            C
But the poor Missouri farmers know
     A#              C                F
That Frank and Jesse do the best they could
