Johnny Cash — Folsom Prison Blues — версия 2

Capo at 1
 
Intro: E 
 
Verse 1:
 E
I hear the train a comin'  
 E
It's rollin' 'round the bend  
 E
And I ain't seen the sunshine  
         E7 
Since, I don't know when  
 A7
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison  
                       E
And time keeps draggin' on  
          B7
But that train keeps a-rollin'  
 A7              E
On down to San Antone 
 
Verse 2:
 E
When I was just a baby  
 E
My Mama told me, "Son  
 E
Always be a good boy  
          E7
Don't ever play with guns"  
 A7
But I shot a man in Reno  
                   E
Just to watch him die  
           B7
When I hear that whistle blowin'  
 A7                  E
I hang my head and cry 
 
E E7 A7 E B7 A7 E
 
Verse 3:
 E
I bet there's rich folks eatin'  
 E
In a fancy dining car  
 E
They're probably drinkin' coffee  
       E7
And smokin' big cigars  
 A7
But I know I had it comin'  
                    E
I know I can't be free  
              B7
But those people keep a-movin'  
 A7                        E
And that's what tortures me 
 
E E7 A7 E B7 A7 E
 
Verse 4:
 E
Well, if they freed me from this prison  
 E
If that railroad train was mine  
 E
I bet I'd move it on a little  
     E7
Farther down the line  
 A7
Far from Folsom Prison  
                         E
That's where I want to stay  
              B7
And I'd let that lonesome whistle  
 A7             E
Blow my blues away 
 
End: E
