Capo 1st Fret
[G]Well I was hauling logs ten years ago
The [D]news was out on the radio
That a [Em]shot was fired the night before
And a [C]local man lay dead on the floor
[G]And the dust was flying in the lumberyard
[D]Lights were flashing on two black cars
I said, [Em]sheriff I ain't done nothing wrong
C (hold)
He just knocked me down and put the handcuffs on
I was f[G]ramed, they[D] took me away
Like [Em]I was the only [C]one to blame
[G]Framed, [D]guilty they said
[Em]Railroaded me on a [C]one way train
[G]Framed, and on [D]judgement day
They [Em]want me to hang my [C]head in shame
But I was fr[G]amed, and that's [D]all I'll say
Now [Em]don't be running [C]down my name
I was fra[G]med
[G] [D] [Em] [C]
[G]Barbara Jo cried through the glass
At the [D]murder trial I seen her last
I [Em]loved that woman but now she's free
She [C]turned away when they sentenced me
[G]And the guilty man ain't never told
Ten [D]years later they put me on the road
And [Em]I'll always say that I got screwed
C (hold)
I'm a brand new man with the same attitude
I was fr[G]amed, they [D]took me away
Like [Em]I was the only [C]one to blame
[G]Framed, [D]guilty they said
[Em]Railroaded me on a [C]one way train
[G]Framed, and on [D]judgement day
They [Em]want me to hang my [C]head in shame
But I was fr[G]amed, and that's [D]all I'll say
Now [Em]don't be running [C]down my name
I was fra[G]med[D] [Em] [C]
[G] [D] [Em] [C] [C]
[G]Now the guilty man paid long ago
He's the [D]same man who got laid low
When he [Em]took my wife he was hell bound
C (hold)
Even if I did gun him down
I was f[G]ramed, they[D] took me away
Like [Em]I was the only [C]one to blame
[G]Framed, [D]guilty they said
[Em]Railroaded me on a [C]one way train
[G]Framed, and on [D]judgement day
They [Em]want me to hang my [C]head in shame
But I was fr[G]amed, and that's [D]all I'll say
Now [Em]don't be running [C]down my name
I was fra[G]med[D] [Em] [C]
I was fra[G]med[D] [Em] [C]
