1. "Folsom Prison Blues"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Link to song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9uk6NHK-AE
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
I hear the train a-coming, it's rolling 'round the bend
ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time keeps dragging on
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But that train keeps a-rolling on down to San Antone
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
When I was just a baby, my mama told me, "Son,
ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns"
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
I bet there's rich folks eating from a fancy dining car
ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big cigars
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Well, I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But those people keep a-moving and that's what tortures me
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to stay
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Oh, come all you young fellers, so young and so fine
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Seek not your fortune in a dark, dreary mine
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
It'll form as a habit and seep in your soul
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
'Til the stream of your blood runs as black as the coal
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Where it's dark as a dungeon, damp as the dew
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Danger is double, pleasures are few
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Where the rain never falls, the sun never shines
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
It's dark as a dungeon, way down in the mine
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Well, it's many a man that I've seen in my day
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
(huh huh, no laughin' during this song please, it's bein' recorded, I know, hell)
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard with his wine
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
A man will have lust for the lure of the mine
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And I pray when I'm dead and my ages shall roll
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
That my body would blacken and turn into coal
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And pity the miner digging my bones
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Where it's dark as a dungeon, damp as the dew
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Danger is double, pleasures are few
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Where the rain never falls, the sun never shines
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
It's dark as a dungeon, way down in the mine

Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I go out on a party
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And look for a little fun
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But I find a darkened corner
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
'Cause I still miss someone
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
No, I never got over those blue eyes
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
I see them everywhere
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
I miss those arms that held me
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
When all the love was there
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I wonder if she's sorry
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
For leavin' what we'd begun
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
There's someone for me somewhere
ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And I still miss someone

Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
N.C. [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
The old hometown looks the same as I step down from the train
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And there to meet me is my mama and my papa
ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Down the road I look, and there runs Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
The old house is still standing, though the paint is cracked and dry
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And there's the old oak tree that I used to play on
ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Down the lane, I walk with my sweet Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch

ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
For there's a guard and a sad old padre, arm in arm, I walk at daybreak
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Again, I touch the green, green grass of home
ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Yes, they'll all come to see me, in the shade of the old oak tree
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home

* = No capo
Intro
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Inside the walls of prison, my body may be
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But my Lord has set my soul free
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
There's a grey stone chapel here at Folsom
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
A house of worship in this den of sin
ch]E[/ch
You wouldn't think that God had a place here at Folsom
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But he saved the soul of many lost men
ch]E[/ch
Now, this grey stone chapel here at Folsom
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
Stands a hundred years old made of granite rock
ch]E[/ch
It takes a ring of keys to move here at Folsom
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But the door to the house of God is never locked
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Inside the walls of prison, my body may be
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But the Lord has set my soul free
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
There are men here that don't ever worship
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
There are men here who scoff at the ones who pray
ch]E[/ch
But I've got down on my knees in that grey stone chapel
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I've thanked the Lord for helping me each day
ch]E[/ch
Now, this grey stone chapel here at Folsom
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
It has a touch of God's hand on every stone
ch]E[/ch
It's a flower of light in a field of darkness
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And it's given me the strength to carry on
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Inside the walls of prison, my body may be
ch]A[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But my Lord has set my soul free
