Traditional... arranged by Bob Dylan. This traditional song is off Dylan's 1992 album As I Been To You'. Also sung by Jack Johnson. Intro: Strum E at about 9 times I think. E Frankie was a good girl. Everybody knows. C Payed 100 dollers for Albert's new suite of clothes. He was her man but he done her wrong. G Albert said, "I'm leaving you. E Won't be gone for long. D Don't wait for me. G A-worry about me when I'm gone." E He was her man but he done her wrong. C Frankie went down to the corner saloon. E Get a bucket of beer. A Said to the bartender. G "Has my lovin' man been here?" E He was her man but he done her wrong. Instrumental solo with the chords above. C "Well, I ain't gonna tell you no stories. E I ain't gonna tell you no lies. D I saw Albert an hour ago. With a gal named Alice Bly." E He was her man but he done her wrong. E Frankie went down to 12th Street. C Lookin' up through the window high. D She saw her Albert there. G Lovein' up Alice Bly. E He was her man but he done her wrong. Solo D Frankie pulled out a pistol. E Pulled out a forty-four. A Gun went off a rootie-toot-toot E And Albert fell on the floor. E He was her man but he done her wrong. E Frankie got down upon her knees. C Took Albert into her lap. D Started to hug and kiss him. D But there was no bringin' him back. E He was her man but he done her wrong. Solo A "Gimme a thousand policemen. E Throw me into a cell. D I shot my Albert dead. E And now I'm goin' to hell. E He was her man but he done me wrong E Judge said to the jury. A "Plain as a thing can be. D A woman shot her lover down. E Murder in the second degree." E He was her man but he done her wrong. Solo E Frankie went to the scaffold. A Calm as a girl could be. D Turned her eyes up towards the heavens. E Said, "Nearer, my God, to Thee." E He was her man but he done her wrong. Finish song with solo. Sorry, If I'm wrong. Overall, enjoy!
