_ [F#] _ _ _ I hear the train a-comin', it's rollin' around the bay, and I ain't seen the sunshine since,
I don't know when, [B] but I'm stuck in Boulder Bridge, and time keeps [F#] draggin' on, _ _ _ _ _ but [C#] that
train keeps a-rollin' on down to San [F#] Adam's. _
_ When I was just a baby, my mama told me, son, _ always be a good boy, don't ever play with
guns, but [B] I shot a man in Reno just to watch [F#] him die. _ _ _
_ _ [C#] When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head [F#] and cry. _ _ _

and smokin' big [B] cigars.
Well, I know I had it comin', I know I [F#] can't be free, _ _ _ _ _ but [C#] those people keep a-movin', and
that's what [F#] tortures me. _ _

_ 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 the line, [B] far from Folsom Prison. _
That's where I [F#] want to be today, _ _ _ _ [A#m] and I'd let that lonesome whistle [C#] _
[F#] blow my blues away.
