Hello, I'm Johnny Cash.
[C] [G] [F]
[Bb]
[F]
[C]
[F]
I'm a good boy, son.
Always be a good boy.
Don't ever play with guns.
But I [Bb] shot a man in Reno, [F] just to watch him die.
[C] But I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head [F] and cry.
[Fm]
[Bb]
[Fm] Smoke!
[C]
[G] [F]
I've been to Bridgeport City from a fancy dining car.
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars.
Well, [Bb] I know I had it comin'.
I know I [F] can't be free.
[C] But those people keep a-movin', and that's what [F] sorcerers mean.
[Fm] Hey!
[Ab]
[Bb]
[F]
[C] [B]
[F] Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine,
I bet I'd move it all a little farther down the line.
[Bb] Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I [F] want to stay.
And
[C] I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [F] away.
[C] [F]
[Eb]
