Folsom Prison Blues - Johnny Cash [Capo 1] E E|---------------------- B|---------------------- G|---------------------- D|-------1-1------------ A|-2-2-2-----2---------- E|-------------3b4b3-0-- E I HEAR the train A-COmin' it's ROLlin 'ROUND the bend and I ain’t seen the SUNshine since I don't know when A E* I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, and time keeps draggin' on B7 * E But that TRAIN keeps on rollin' on down to-San-An-Tone When I was just a baby my mama told me, "Son Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns" But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die When I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry solo I bet there's rich folk eatin'in a fancy dining car They're prob’ly drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars But I know I had it comin', I know I can't be free But those people keep a-movin', and that's what tortures me solo Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine I bet I'd move it all a little farther down the line Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to stay And I'd let that lonesome whistle, blow my blues away repeat intro + single strum E E* alternate w/ E7 * x2100x
