Chords for Johnny Cash - Dark as a dungeon - Live at Folsom Prison

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ Oh come all you young fellers, so young and so [Bb]
fine,
_ [Eb] Seek not your fortune [Ab] in the dark dreary [Eb] mine. _
_ _ It'll form as a habit [Ab] and seep in [Bb] your soul,
[Eb] Till the stream of your blood _ [Ab] runs as black [Eb] as the coal. _ _
Where [Bb] it's dark as a dungeon, _ [Ab] _
damp [Eb] as a dew,
_ [C] _ [Bb] _
Danger is double, _ [Ab] pleasures [Eb] are few.
Where the rain never falls, [Ab] the sun never [Bb] shines,
[Eb] It's dark as a dungeon [Ab] way down in [Eb] the mine. _ _ _ _
_ Well, there's many a man [Ab] that I've seen in my [Bb] day,
_ [Eb]
No laughing during the song please.
_ It's been recorded, I know, hell, don't you know it's recorded? _ _
Like a pig with his dope and [Ab] a drop bird with [Bb] his wife,
[Eb] A man will howl blood for the lure of the mine.
_ _ And the prey when I'm dead and [Ab] my ages [Bb] shall roll,
[Eb] That my body would blacken and turn [Bb] into [Eb] coal. _ _
And I'd look from the door [Ab]
of my heavenly [Bb] home,
And [Eb]
pity the miner [Ab] digging [Eb] my _ bones.
_ Where [Bb] it's dark as a dungeon, _ [Ab] _ damp [Eb] as a dew,
_ [Bb] _ Danger is double, _
[Ab] _ pleasures are [Eb] few.
Where the rain never falls, [Ab] the sun never [Bb] shines,
[Eb] It's dark as a dungeon [Ab] way down in the mine.

_ Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Sorry about that little interruption there, but I just wanted to tell you that this show is being recorded for an album release on Columbia Records,
and you can't say hell or shit or anything like that. _ _ _ _
How's that grab you, Bob?
