_ Yeah! _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I hear the train a-comin'
It's rollin' around a bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since
I don't know [A] when
[Bb] I'm stuck in Folsom's prison
And time keeps [F] craggin' on _
_ _ _ But [C] that train keeps a-rollin'
All down to San [F] Antone
Well, when I was just a baby
My mama told me, son
Always be a good boy
Don't ever play with guns
[Bb] But I shot a man in Reno
_ Just to watch [F] him die _ _ _ _
[C] When I hear that whistle blowin'
I hang my [F] head and cry Yeah!
_ I would! _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
Well, if they'd free me from this prison
_ If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
[Bb] Far from Folsom's prison
That's where I want [F] to stay
_ And _ _
[Bb] [C] I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [F] away
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
