Frank and Jesse James Warren Zevon
Hey, I tabbed this song because there are currently no other tabs for it. I didnt
bother to tab the piano intro or the other piano solos, just the verse and the chorus.
The chords are pretty simple so here it is.
Warren Zevon
Frank and Jesse James
First Verse:
[Dm]On a small Miss[F]ouri farm
Back [C]when the West was [F]young
[Dm]Two boys learned to [C]rope and ride
And be [A#]handy with a [F]gun
[Dm]War broke out bet[F]ween the states
And they [C]joined up with Cant[F]rell
And it was [Dm]over in Clay [C]County
That [A#]Frank and Jesse [C]finally learned to [F]kill
Chorus:
Keep on [Dm]riding, [C]riding, [F]riding
[A#]Frank and Jesse [F]James
Keep on [Dm]riding, [C]riding, [F]riding
Un[A#]til you clear your [F]names
Keep on [Dm]riding, [C]riding, [F]riding
Across the [A#]rivers and the [F]plains
Keep on [Dm]riding, [C]riding, [F]riding
[A#]Frank and? Jesse [Dm]James
Second Verse:
[Dm]After Appo[F]madox,
they was [C]on the losing [F]side
so no [Dm]amnesty was [C]granted
and as [A#]outlaws they did [F]ride
they [Dm]rode against the [F]railroads
and they [C]rode against the [F]banks
and they [Dm]rode against the [C]governor
[A#]never did they [C]ask for a word of [F]thanks
Chorus
Third Verse:
[Dm]Robert Ford, a [F]gunman,
In ex[C]change for his pa[F]rol
Took the [Dm]life of James the [C]outlaw
Which he [A#]snuck up on and [F]stole
[Dm]No one know just [F]where they came
To [C]be misunder[F]stood
But the [Dm]poor Missouri [C]farmers know
That [A#]Frank and Jesse [C]do the best they [F]could
