Hello, I'm Johnny Cash.
Cash! _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ I hear the train a-comin'
It's rollin' round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since
I don't know when
I'm stuck [Bb] in Folsom Prison
And time keeps [F] draggin' on _ _ _ _ _
[C] But that train keeps rollin'
On down to [F] San An
I _ _ _ was just a baby
My mama told me, son
Always be a good boy
Don't ever play with guns
But I [Bb] shot a man in [F] Reno
Just to watch him die _
But _ _ [A] [C] I hear that whistle blowin'
In _ my [F] head _ _ _
[Ab] _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ I've been to rich folks eatin'
From fancy dinin' cars
They're probably drinkin' coffee
And smokin' big [Bbm] cigars
[Bb] Well, I know I had it comin'
I [F] know I can't be free _ _ _
_ [C] But those people keep a-movin'
And that's what [E] soldiers [F] be
_ [Fm] _
Well, _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [F] _ _
if they'd free me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it all a little farther down the [Bb] line
Far from Folsom Prison
That's where I [F] want to stay _ _ _ _
[C] And I'd let that lonesome whistle
_ Blow my blues [F] away
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
