Testo FOLSOM PRISON BLUES

FOLSOM PRISON BLUES C 1.I hear the train a comin`, it`s rollin`, round the bend, C7 and I ain`t seen the sunshine, since I don`t know when. F I`m stuck at Folsom Prison, and time keeps C draggin`, on, G G7 but that train keeps a rollin`, on down to San C Antone. C 2.When I was just a baby, my mother told me : C7 Son, always be a good boy, don`t ever play F with guns! But I shot a man in Reno, just to C watch him die. G G7 When I hear that whistle blowin`, I hang my C head and cry. C 3.I bet there`s rich folk eatin` in a fancy dining car, they`re prob`ly drinking coffee, C7 and smokin` big cigars. F But I know I had it coming, I know I can`t be C G G7 free, but those people keep a movin`, and C that`s what tortures me. C 4.Well, if they freed me from that prison, if that railroad train was mine, C7 I bet I`d move it over, a little farther down the line. F Far from Folsom Prison, that`s were I want to C G G7 stay, and I`d let that lonesome whistle C blow my blues away. (orig. = capo 5th)
