WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Marty Robbins - They're Hanging Me Tonight Chords | Ver. 1
A pretty cool song that wasn't here when I looked for it and the chords I found online
weren't very accurate (Not saying these will be 100% either, but I like them better than
what I found.)
F: xx3211
Dm: xx0231
Bb: x13331
Note: This can also be played with a capo on the 5th fret and by playing the open chords
of C, Am and F from there (Actually F, Dm and Bb, but they look like the open chords

Intro: F Dm Bb F
F Dm
When I hear the rain a comin' down
F Dm
it makes me sad and blue
F Dm
Was on a rainy night like this
Bb F
that Flo said we were through.
F Dm
I told her how I loved her,
F Dm
and I begged her not to go
F Dm
But another man had changed her mind
Bb F
so I said goodbye to Flo.
F Dm
Alone within my cell tonight
F Dm
my heart is filled with fear
F Dm
The only sound within the room
Bb F
is the falling of each tear.
F Dm
I think about the thing I've done,
F Dm
I know it wasn't right
F Dm Bb F
They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight,
Bb F
They're hanging me tonight!
That night he came and took my Flo and headed in to town
I knew I had to find this man and try to gun him down
As I walked by a dim cafe and I looked through the door
I saw my Flo with her new love and I couldn't stand no more,
I couldn't stand no more.
I took my pistol from my hip and with a trembling hand
I took the life of pretty Flo and that good for nothin' man
That good for nothin' man!
I think about the thing I've done I know it wasn't right
They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight,
They're hanging me tonight.
