[A] [B] [E]
Inside the walls of prison my body may be, [A] but my Lord [G] has set my [E] soul free.
There's a gray stone chapel here at Folsom, a house of worship in this [B] den of sin.
[E] You wouldn't think that God had a place here at Folsom.
But [A] he saved the soul of many lost men.
Now this gray stone chapel here at Folsom stands a hundred years old, made of granite [B] rock.
It [E] takes a ring of keys to move here at Folsom, [A] but the door to the house [B] of God is [E] never locked.
[Em] Inside the walls of prison my body may be, [A] but the Lord has set my [E] soul free.

[E] There are men here that don't ever worship.
There are men here who scoff at the [B] ones who pray.
[E] But I've got down on my knees in that gray stone chapel, [A] and I thank the Lord for helping [E] me each day.
Now this gray stone chapel here at Folsom, it has the touch of God's hand [B] on every stone.
[E] It's a flower of life in a field of darkness, and [A] it's given me the strength [E] to carry on.
[B] Inside the walls of prison my body may be, [A] but my Lord has set [E] my soul free.

As a gentleman here I'd like to have stand up with a very, very proud man.
He used to be many years ago a bad land farmer down in Dyess, Arkansas, but he's Johnny Cash's daddy, Mr.
Ray Cash.
I'd like to bring up a gentleman who's got something to say to Johnny Cash, a gentleman you all know, the associate warden, Mr.
Faustman.
I'm all in, I like
[E] to, yeah.

Johnny Cash, make him one of the in-group when he's out.
Thank you, Mr.
