[Intro]
E7
 
 
[Verse 1]
E7
I hear that train a comin' rollin' around the bend
E7
I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
    A7                                             E7
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' on
         B7                                    E7
And that train keeps a movin' on down to San Antone
 
 
[Verse 2]
E7
When I was a baby my mama told me son
E7
Always be a good boy don't ever play with guns
      A7                                   E7
But I shot a cat in Reno just to watch him die
       B7                                      E7
Yeah I know I had it comin' I hang my head and cry
 
 
[Dobro & Harmonica Solo]
E7    A7    E7    B7
E7
 
 
[Verse 3]
E7
I bet there's rich folks eatin' in a fancy dining car
E7
Prob'ly drinkin' coffeee and smokin' big cigars
         A7                                              E7
Well I'm stuck in Folsom Prison that's where I'll always be
         B7                                            E7
And them people keep a movin' and that's what tortures me
 
 
[Verse 4]
E7
Yeah if they freed me from this prison and that railroad train was mine
E7
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
A7                                            E7
Far from Folsom Prison that's where I long to stay
         B7                                       E7
Yeah I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
 
 
[Outro]
