FOLSOM PRISON BLUES
By Johnny Cash
Key: G
4 5 5 -5 6 4 4
I hear that train a-com-in'
4 5 5 -5 6 4
It's rol-lin' 'round the bend,
4 5 5 -5 5 6 4
And I ain't seen the sun-shine,
4 -4 5 4 -4 4
Since, I don't know when,
-44 -4 4 -4 4 -4 4
I'm stuck in Fol-som Pri-son,
-4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 3
And time keeps drag-gin' on,
4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 3
But that train keeps a-rol-lin',
3 3 3 3 2 1
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.
I bet there's rich folks eatin',
In a fancy dining car,
They're probably 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.
Well, if they freed me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine,
I bet I'd move out over 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.
