[Gb] [A] [D]
[Am] [A] [E] [A]
[Eb] [F] Now [A] Johnny Cash in the Tennessee [D] Two Seemed to know just what to [A] do
Invented the sound that hooked you and [Em] me Added [E] one and made the Tennessee [Am] Three
[A] A man in black, was long and lean Hit [D] the billboard charts with the teenage queen
Did [A] a television show, the best we'd [E] seen Matt Chickaboot and Rock really made us flash
This is an old [Am] Johnny [A] Cash
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] Now Johnny Cash was a friend of [Eb] mine Knew him well for a mighty long time
[Bb] Shared the stage, I'm in his [F] show Broke my [Cm] heart to see him [Bb] go
Cash had the power of a thousand [Eb] men Love in life was [G] his greatest [Bb] sin
Treated his fans like the next of [Fm] kin [F] Rappin' a bit, talkin' trash
This is an old [Bb] Johnny Cash
Well now Johnny Cash wore black a tie [Eb] Then he fell into that ring of fire
[Bb] He came up swingin' like a boy in a [F] suit He married June Carter and he fired [Bb] Stew
He wrote his songs from deep within [Eb] And he hit the stage with a crooked [Bb] grin
He and I were both highwaymen [F] And that record became a smash
Well I'm [G] this old [Bb] Johnny Cash
[B]
Johnny Cash never walked no [E] line Johnny Cash never did no [B] time
But when he sang a fool some prison [A] blues He didn't [Gb] do good and well
He paid his [B] dues, true he always dressed [E] black But he loved the folks and they loved him [B] back
He carried his pills in a brown paper [Gb] sack Well I don't care if they found his stash
I'm this old [B] Johnny Cash
[A]
Now is it really true that him and Roy Nichols, Rose Maddox and people roasted hot dogs in the back of a limousine with ice cream sticks?
[Am] I don't [A] know, they said they set the curtains on fire in the English hotel room just to warm their hands
Well, Willie do you know anything about Cash?
Well yeah I know a lot of things about Cash I'm not sure I should talk about it
But I checked with John asking if it's okay and he said he didn't give a shit
One time he took a [Am] gasket up to his [A] hotel room and got into it and called room service
I thought that was pretty funny
Now Cash had the [Em] fire of a thousand [D] men Loving life was his greatest [A] sin
Treated his friends like the next [E] gen Grappling a bit, talking trash
This is old [A] Johnny Cash
[Am]
