FOLSOM PRISON BLUES CHORDS
[Start] [Verse] Db Gb ■ ■ I hear the train a comin' it's rolling round the bend Gb And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when B Gb I'm stuck in Folsom prison and time keeps draggin' on Db Db7 Gb But that train keeps a rollin' ■ on down to San Antone Gb When I was just a baby my mama told me son Gb Always be a good boy don't ever play with guns B Gb But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die Db7 Gb When I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry [Solo] Gb7 Gb Gb7 B Gb Db7 Gb ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Verse] Gb I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car Gb They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars B Gb Well I know I had it coming I know I can't be free Db7 But those people keep on movin' Gb And that's what tortures me [Solo] Gb7 B Gb Db7 Gb ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Chorus] Gb Well if they freed me from this prison Gb If that railroad train was mine Gb I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line B Gb Far from Folsom prison that's where I want to stay Db Gb Db Gb And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away ■ ■ [End]
