E MajorE
I hear that train comin' it's rollin' 'round the bend,
                  Bm7Bm7
I ain't seen the sunshine, since, I don't know when,
     A augmentedA                      E MajorE A/BA/B E MajorE
Well I'm stuck In Folsom Prison, time keeps draggin' on,
A7A7    BB                  E MajorE
But that train keep's rollin' on down to San Antone.

Well I was just a baby, my Mama told me son,

Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns,

But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die,

Verse:
E MajorE
I bet there's rich folk's eatin' some fancy dining car,
                        G7G7
Their probably drinkin' coffee, and smokin' big cigars,
   A augmentedA       E MajorE  A7A7         E MajorE  A augmentedA
But I know I had it comin' I know I can't be free,
     BB                  Bm7Bm7   E MajorE
But those people keep on movin' and that what tortures me.
