CASH JOHNNY - "folsom prison blues2" Tablature

Official CASH JOHNNY Tablature & Sheet Music »

G
I HEAR THE TRAIN A COMIN, IT'S ROLLIN ROUND THE BEND,

I AIN'T SEEN THE SUNSHINE SINCE I DON'T KNOW WHEN.
C7 G
I'M STUCK IN FOLSOM PRISON AND TIME KEEPS DRAGGIN ON.
D7 G
BUT THE TRAIN KEEPS ROLLIN ON DOWN TO SAN ANTONE.


G
WHEN I WAS JUST A BABY MY MAMA TOLD ME, SON

ALWAYS BE A GOOD BOY, DON'T EVER AROUND PLAY WITH GUNS.
C7 G
BUT I SHOT A MAN IN RENO JUST TO WATCH HIM DIE.
D7 G
WHEN I HEAR THAT WHISTLE BLOWIN I HANG MY HEAD AND CRY.


G
I BET THERE'S RICH FOLKS EATIN IN A FANCY DININ CAR,

THEY'RE PROB'LY DRINKIN COFFEE AND SMOKIN BIG CIGARS,
C7 G
BUT I KNOW I HAD IT COMIN, I KNOW I CAN'T BE FREE,
D7
BUT THOSE PEOPLE KEEP A MOVIN AND THAT'S WHAT
G
TORTURES ME.

G
WELL IF THEY FREED ME FROM THIS PRISON, IF THAT RAILROAD

TRAIN WAS MINE

I BET I'D MOVE A LITTLE FARTHER ON DOWN THE LINE.
C7 G
FAR FROM FOLSOM PRISON THAT'S WHERE I WANT TO STAY
D7 G
AND I'D LET THAT LONESOME WHISTLE BLOW MY BLUES AWAY.
