[Intro] (Spoken)
Strum C and G
Last time we were here at Folsom Prison
They were hanging Joe Bean
Is Joe still here... Joe Bean?
Hang the son of a bitch anyways, right?
Well, they're hanging Joe Bean this morning
For killing a man in Arkansas
Funny thing about it
Joe Bean has never been to Arkansas
On top of that, Joe Bean never heard of the man
In fact, today is Joe Bean's twentieth birthday
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
See through the prison bars
ch]G[/ch
Joe Bean, see where the gallows stand
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Just twenty short years from the day you were born
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
You died by the hangman's hand
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
Yes, they're hanging Joe Bean this morning
ch]G7[/ch
For a shootin' that he never did
ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
He killed 20 men, by the time he was 10, he was an unruly kid
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Yes, they're hanging Joe Bean for the one shootin' that Joe Bean never did
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
Well, Joe - your mother is at the Capitol
ch]G[/ch
Asking the governor for a stay
ch]F[/ch
And it's hard on her
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Because she knows where you were, on that particular day
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
You were working Joe Bean, hard working, robbing the Santa Fe
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
Well, the telegraph wires are humming
ch]G[/ch
Hear the governor's words come through
ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
He said, I can't set you free, it's not up to me, but this much, Joe Bean, I'll do
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
I'll join your mother in extending birthday greetings to you
Happy Birthday, Joe Bean
