Folsom Prison Blues (live studio recording) - Jay Valor - Rockabilly Arrangement chords
Start Jamming...
[F] My mama told me son, always be a good boy.
Don't [Fm] ever play with games,
[Bb] you shall remain in the ring.
[F] [Fm] Yeah, we're ready right?
Everybody good?
[E] All right.
Battle stations everybody.
All right, here we go.
[F]
[Fm] We're good?

[E] [C] [Ab] [F]
[Fm]
I hear the train coming.
It's rolling around the bend.
And I [F] ain't seen the sunshine since.
I don't know when I [Bb] was supposed to prison.
I ain't time for dragging [F] it all.
But that [C] train keeps rolling [Bb] on down this sad [F] and hazy road.
When I was just a baby, my mama told me son, always be a good boy.
Don't ever play with games,
but [Bb] I shall remain in the ring.
Just watch [F] him die.
When [C] I hear that whistle [Bb] blowing, I lay my [F] head and cry.

All I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car.
They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big cigs.
[Bb] I know a hand coming, I know I can't be [F] free.
But [C] those people keep on [Bb] moving, and that's what tortures [F] me.
Ah.

[C] [E] [Bb]
[F]
Well, if [Ab] they freed me from this prison, that railroad train was mine.
I bet I'd move it on a little further down that road [Bb] from Pervolta Prison.
That's where I want [F] to stay.
When [C] I let that lonesome [Bb] whistle blow my blues [F] away.
