Folsom Prison Blues Chords by Everlast

[Start]

[Intro]
N.C.                                   
Who you trying to get crazy with Whitey
                        B B7 E
Don't you know I'm loco ■ ■  ■


[Verse]
  E                      
I hear that train acomin'
E                     
Comin' around the bend
      E                      
And I ain't seen the sunshine
E                      
Since I don't know when
          A               
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
A                     
Time keeps draggin' on
E       B7                       
Andthat train just keeps arollin'
               E     
On down to San Antone
     E                
When I was just a baby
   E               
My mama told me son
E                   
Always be a good boy
      E                  
Don't ever play with guns
      A                 
But I shot a man in Reno
                  E  
Just to watch him die


[Chorus]
       B7                       
When I hear that whistle blowin'
                   E  
I hang my head and cry
E7 A7 E7 B7 E

[Verse]
  E7  E                        
I bet there's rich folks eatin'
       E               
From a fancy dining car
        E                        
They're probably drinking whiskey
    E                 
And smoking big cigars
            A              
Well I know I had it coming
A                     
I know I can't be free
E     B7                 
Those people keep amovin'
                         E 
And that's what tortures me


[Chorus]
E7 B7 A7 E7 E E7

   E                             
If they freed me from this prison
   E                           
If that railroad train was mine
    E                             
I'd probably move it just a little
E                    
Farther down the line
A                     
Far from Folsom Prison
                       E   
That's where I long to stay
        B                        
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
B7                E   
Blow out my blues away
