First Verse:
Dm Dm F F
On a small Missouri farm
C C F F
Back when the West was young
Dm Dm C C
Two boys learned to rope and ride
A# A# F F
And be handy with a gun
Dm Dm F F
War broke out between the states
C C F F
And they joined up with Cantrell
Dm Dm C C
And it was over in Clay County
A# A# C C F F
That Frank and Jesse finally learned to kill


Chorus:
Dm Dm C C F F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
A# A# F F
Frank and Jesse James
Dm Dm C C F F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
A# A# F F
Until you clear your names
Dm Dm C C F F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
A# A# F F
Across the rivers and the plains
Dm Dm C C F F
Keep on riding, riding, riding
A# A# Dm Dm
Frank and... Jesse James

Second Verse:
Dm Dm F F
After Appomadox,
C C F F
they was on the losing side
Dm Dm C C
so no amnesty was granted
A# A# F F
and as outlaws they did ride
Dm Dm F F
they rode against the railroads
C C F F
and they rode against the banks
Dm Dm C C
and they rode against the governor
A# A# C C F F
never did they ask for a word of thanks

Chorus

Third Verse:
Dm Dm F F
Robert Ford, a gunman,
C C F F
In exchange for his parol
Dm Dm C C
Took the life of James the outlaw
A# A# F F
Which he snuck up on and stole
Dm Dm F F
No one know just where they came
C C F F
To be misunderstood
Dm Dm C C
But the poor Missouri farmers know
A# A# C C F F
That Frank and Jesse do the best they could

Chorus x2
