Youre Gonna Miss Me Chords

(ver. 1)
Kingston Trio
[Intro]
Bb

[Verse]
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

[Verse]
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

[Chorus]
         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"

[Verse]
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

[Verse]
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

[Chorus]
         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"

[Verse]
 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

[Verse]
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

[Chorus]
         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"
