The Kingston Trio – Youre Gonna Miss Me (Guitar)

Bb
Frankie and Johnnie were sweethearts

Bb
They had a quarrel one day

Eb
Johnny vowed he would leave her

                      Bb
He said he was going away

             F                   Bb
Never coming home, goin' away to roam

Bb
Frankie frantically pleaded

 Bb
"My love, Johnny, please stay

Eb
Now, oh, my honey, I've done you wrong

                     Bb
But please don't go away"

           F                     Bb
And Johnny sighed, while Frankie cried

         Eb
"Oh, I'm goin' away, I'm goin' away

             Bb
Never coming home

             F
You're gonna miss me, honey, in the days to come

         Bb
When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up

             Eb
And when you think of the way, you're gonna wish me back

            Bb
Your lovin' man

             F                                        Bb
You're gonna miss me, honey, in the day they say's to come"

Bb
Frankie done said to her Johnny

 Bb
"Now man, your hour done come"

       Eb
'Cause from behind her kimono

                        Bb
She drew her forty-four gun

             F                 Bb
These love affairs are hard to bear

Bb
Johnny, he fled down the stairway

 Bb
"My love, Frankie, don't shoot!"

Eb
Frankie done aimed the forty-four

                               Bb
While the town went rooty-toot-toot

          F                  Bb
As Johnny fell, then Frankie yelled

         Eb
"Oh, I'm goin' away, I'm goin' away

             Bb
Never coming home

             F
You're gonna miss me, honey, in the days to come

         Bb
When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up

             Eb
And when you think of the way, you're gonna wish me back

            Bb
Your lovin' man

             F                                        Bb
You're gonna miss me, honey, in the day they say's to come"

 Bb
"Send for your rubber tired hearses

Bb
Send for your rubber tired hacks

Eb
Carry old Johnny to the graveyard

                     Bb
I've shot him in the back

                 F                    Bb
With a great big gun, as the preacher begun

Bb
Send for some policeman

Bb
To take me right away

Eb
Lock me down in the dungeon cell

                   Bb
And throw the key away

            F               Bb
My Johnny's dead because he said

         Eb
"Oh, I'm goin' away, I'm goin' away

             Bb
Never coming home

             F
You're gonna miss me, honey, in the days to come

         Bb
When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up

             Eb
And when you think of the way, you're gonna wish me back

            Bb
Your lovin' man

             F                                        Bb
You're gonna miss me, honey, in the day they say's to come"
