[A] [G] [A]
Well, I feel that train a-comin'
It's rollin' around the bend
Well, I ain't seen the sunshine since
I don't know when
[D] But I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
Time keeps [A] draggin' on
[E] Well, that train keeps a [D]-rollin'
On down to San [A] [G] Antonio
[A] [Em]
[A] I was just a [Am] baby
My mama [A] told some
She said, always be a good boy
Don't never [Am] play with guns
[D] But I shot a man in Reno
Just [A] watchin'
Now, [E] when I hear that whistle blowin'
[D] I hang my [A] head and cry
[C]
[A]
[Am] [A]
[D]
[A] [E]
[D] [Am] [A]
Well, I bet there's rich folks eatin'
From the [Am] fancy dining car
[A] Well, they're probably drinkin' coffee
And smokin' big cigars
[D] Well, I know I heard it comin'
I know I [Am] can't keep [D] it
[A] Now,
[E] those people keep movin'
[D] That's what [A] tortured me
Lifted me from this prison
That [Am] railroad train of mine
[A] I bet I moved it on
Way up off the town
[D] Yeah, up off Folsom Prison
That's where I [A] wanna stay
[E] Lord, I hear that whistle
[D] blowin'
[A]
It's [Em] been thirty years now
[Am] And I [F#m] know I'll never [G] leave this godforsaken place [Am] alive
[F#m] Mama's [G] gone, but [E] I hear her [A] words ringin' through [C] my head
[A] As loud as that old [D] train whistle cryin' out to me
Night after inland night
Sendin' a cold steel shiver through my [Am] lost soul
I [D] close my [A] eyes and pray that [E] that iron horde
[Bm] Is [E] bound for the promised land
And I'll get to [D] ride it home to glory someday
