INTRO:
F#                  B        F#                  C#7
I was put here by a jury..of twelve good men and true.
    F#                B          F#         C#7   F#
For myself I wouldn't worry..but what about Jenny Lou.

CHORUS: 
F#                      B                       C#7
What'll they do to her..what'll they do to her..what'll 
              F#
they do to my darling?
F#                        B
Will they go blaming her..taunting and shaming her.. 
C#7            F#
after I'm gone away?

#1.
F#                          B            F#
Since the main street was deserted..they all believe the
C#7
worst.
      F#              B            F#           C#7      F#
There was only me and Jenny..could swear it was him drew first.

#2.
F#                      B           F#                  C#7
They believe I meant to kill him..although he'd been my pal.
      F#                 B               F#        C#7
There was real bad blood between us..for Jenny was once his
F#
gal.

    F#                   B            F#        C#7     F#
How his brothers lied by saying..that Jenny had led him on.
 
#4.
F#                       B           F#           C#7
They'll be coming in the morning..to take me to a tree.
    F#                             B        F#          C#7
Oh, when I think how they'll treat Jenny..I wish it was him
