Chords
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.
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
