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
A#: 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 A#, but they look like the open chords
from the capo).

4/4
Intro: F Dm A# F
FWhen I hear the rain a Dmcomin' down
Fit makes me sad and bluDme
FWas on a rainy night like Dmthis
A#that Flo said we were throFugh.
FI told her how I lovDmed her,
Fand I begged her not Dmto go
FBut another man had changed Dmher mind
A#so I said goodbye to FFlo.
FAlone within my cell tDmonight
Fmy heart is filled withDm fear
FThe only sound within thDme room
A#is the falling of each tFear.
FI think about the thing I'vDme done,
FI know it wasn't righDmt
FThey'll bury Flo tomorDmrow, A#but they're hanging me tonigFht,
A#They're hanging me toniFght!
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.
