Folsom Prison Blues - Johnny Cash (3 OCTAVES) Cover chords
Start Jamming...
I hear that train a-comin'
It's rollin' round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine [Em] since
I don't know [E] when
[A] I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
And time keeps [E] draggin' on
[B] But that train keeps a -rollin'
Oh, now I'm a sad [E] man too
When I was just a baby
My mama told me, son
Always be a good boy
Don't have a favorite kind
[A] But I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch [E] him die
[B] When I knew I was alone
I hit my head [E] and cried
[Em] [E]
[A]
[E]
[B]
[Bm] [E]
I met this rich routine
In a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee
And smokin' bentos
Well, [A] I know I had it comin'
I know I can't [E] be free
But [B] those people keep a-movin'
Yeah, that [E] was me
[A]
[E]
[B]
[E]
When they freed me from this prison
If that railroad was mine
I bet I'm movin' on up the border
Down the line [A] to Folsom Prison
That's where I want [E] to stay
And [B] I let that lonesome soul
Lose [E] her way
