Framed Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I was walkin' down the street,
mindin' my own affair
When two policemen grabbed me unaware
He says, "Is your name [C]Henry?",
[G]I says, "Why sure"
He says, "You the boy
I'm lookin' for"

[Verse 2]
I was [C]framed, framed,
I was [G]blamed, [Em]fram[G]ed
[Dm]Well, I never knew nothi[C]ng
but I [Gm]al ways get fr[G]amed
[Gm]Oh, [C]fram[D]ed[Dm][G]

[Verse 3]
They took him in the lineup and [G]let those
bright lights shine
There was ten poor souls
like me in that line
I knew I was a victim of someone's evil
When a stool pigeon [D]walked in and [G]says,
"That's your man"

[Verse 4]
I was [C]framed, framed, [Gm]I was bl[G]amed
[D]Oh, [Em]fram[G]ed, framed, framed
[Dm]Well, I never knew[D] nothi[A]ng[C]
but I always [G]get [D]framed

[D]the[G] prosecutor turned and starte[C]d a prosecutin' me[G]
Man, that cat did[C]n't give
me the one but the third [G]de gree
He [D]says, "Where were you on the night
[G]of July 1953?"
"Man, I was just home,
just [G]a tweedle- a- dee"

[Verse 6]
I was [C]framed, oh framed, I was [G]blamed
[C]Oh fra[G]med, framed, framed
