CHORDSUPFolsom Prison Blues - Johnny Cash chords
Key:
E
Singer/Band:
Johnny Cash
Capo on 2nd fret
[Verse1]
[E]I hear the train a-coming, it's rolling round the bend
and I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't [E7]know when
I'm [A]stuck at Folsom Prison, and time keeps [E]draggin' on
But that [B7]train keeps a-rollin' on down to San [E]Antone
[Verse2]
[E]When I was just a baby, my Mama told me 'Son,
always be a good boy; don't ever play with [E7]guns.'
But I [A]shot a man in Reno, just to watch him [E]die
when I [B7]hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and [E]cry
[Solo]
[E] [|] [E] [|] [E] [|] [E] [A] [|] [A] [|] [E] [|] [E]

[Verse3]
[E]I bet there's rich folks eatin' in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinking coffee and [E7]smoking big cigars
But I [A]know I had it coming, I know I can't be [E]free
But [B7]those people keep a moving, and that's what [E]tortures me
[Solo]
[E] [|] [E] [|] [E] [|] [E] [A] [|] [A] [|] [E] [|] [E]
B7| B7| E |
[Verse4]
[E]Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down [E7]the line
Far [A]from Folsom Prison, that's where I want [E]to stay
And [B7]I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [E]away
