Hello mythical beasts, I'm Rhett McLaughlin.
[G]
Now I've still got a cold, and that means I've still got my cold voice.
Many of you pointed out yesterday in the vlog and the comments there under the video that
when you have a cold that's an opportunity to do an impersonation of the one, the only, Mr.
Johnny Cash.
So I'm gonna attempt to do that right here with a little rendition of Folsom Prison Blues
[A] with a couple of special custom [C] verses for those of you who call yourselves mythical beasts.
Thank you.
[F]
I hear the train a-comin'
It's rollin' round the bend
I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
[Bb] I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
And time keeps [F] draggin' on
But [C] that train keeps a-rollin' on down to San [F] Antone
When I was just a baby, my mama told me, son
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns
[Bb] But I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch [F] him die
When I [C] hear that whistle blowin'
I hang my [F] head and cry
Now here come the custom verses just for the mythical beasts.
Some of you might know Link, I consider him a friend
But I ain't seen that old boy since I don't know when
[Bb] I'm stuck here in this basement, workin' [F] all alone
[C] While Link tends to his woman and children [F] at home
But I'm gonna hold down the fort, I'm gonna thrive in this arrangement
I'm gonna carry the fiery torch of entertainment
[Bb] I'm gonna keep on goin' even though it's [F] just me
[C] I'll keep on goin' cause I'm [Ab] a [F] mythical beast
I said, [C] I'm gonna keep on [F] goin' cause I'm [Bm] a [Em] mythical [F] beast
