E / / / / / / /
I hear the train a comin' It's rollin' 'round the bend,
E / / / / / / /
And I ain't seen the sunshine, Since, I don't know when,
A / / / / / / E / / / / /
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, And time keeps draggin' on,
B7 / / / / / / / E
But that train keeps a-rollin', on down to San Antone.
E / / / / / / /
When I was just a baby, My Mama told me, Son,
E / / / / / / /
Always be a good boy, Don't ever play with guns,
A / / // / / / E / / / / /
But I shot a man in Reno, Just to watch him die,
B7 / / // / / / E
When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry.

E / / / / / /
I bet there's rich folks eatin', In a fancy dining car,
E / / / / / / /
They're probably drinkin' coffee, And smokin' big cigars,
A / / / / / / / E
Well I know I had it comin', I know I can't be free,
B7 / / // / / / E
But those people keep a-movin',And that's what tortures me.

E / / / / / / / /
Well, if they freed me from this prison, If that railroad train was mine,
E / / / / / / /
I bet I'd move it all a little, Farther down the line,
A / / / / / / / E / / / /
Far from Folsom Prison, That's where I want to stay,
B7 / / / / / / / E /
And I'd let that lonesome whistle, Blow my Blues away.
