Folsom Prison Blues (key of E)

I use this little lick in the beggining & end.  
  
 
  
  
E                                        
I hear the train a comin, It's rollin round the bend 
                                              A 
I ain't seen the sunshine since, I don't know when  
                                                   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 mamma told me son 
                                          A 
Always be a good boy don't ever play with guns 
                                            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 


(solo) 

E                                        
I bet there's rich folk eatin in a fancy dinin car 
                                        A 
Probaly drinkin coffee and smokin big cigars 
                                             E  
But I knew 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 


(solo) 

  
E                                        
If they freed me from this prison, If that railroad train was mine 
                                                    A 
I think that I would move a little farther down the line 
                                                E  
Far from folsom prison, thats where I'd want to stay 
        B7                                        E 
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
