Brandi Carlile - Folsom Prison Blues - 8/3/2008 - Newport Folk Festival (Official) chords
Start Jamming...
[B] So I know this is a Newport Folk Festival, but is there I play you guys a country song
[F#] And it's not against the law to do [B] a cover tune, right?
[F#]
We're gonna play you a song now by the [E] late gold Johnny Cash
[C#] [A] [F#]
[F#m] [F#] The air train coming
Was rolling around the bend
I ain't seen the sunshine since
And I know they're in [B] the second floor of some prison
Time to drag [F#] it along
All [C#] that I hear is the blowing
Back off of [F#] Santa Claus
Put your hands together
Well it's just a baby
My mama's commission
Oh it'd be a good time
I know they have a flame of joy
But [B] I'll start a merry old
Drums and rock [F#] and roll
And when [C#] I hear them all loaded
They [B] hang my [F#] head around
Well I've spent a rich folks meeting
I've spent a dialing car
I've spent a drinking whiskey
And smoked some big cigars
And [B] I know I had it coming
I know I can't [F#] be free
Well if [C#] those people keep on moving
Then [G#m] that's when God's [F#] at me
[B]
[F#]
[C#m]
[B] [F#]
[B]
[F#]
[C#m]
[F#m] [E] [F#]
[G#m] [F#] Get your hands up
All that they've done in prison
If that fragile dream is mine
I'll probably move along
A little further down the [B] line
For some prison
That's where I [F#] wanna stay
[C#] And I wanna let that lonesome whistle
Blow my [F#] blues
Thank [F#m] [C#]
[A] [F#]
[N]
[Gm] you very much!
My name's Brandi Carlisle Thank you!
