G             
I hear the train acoming it's rolling round the bend
                                                G7  
and I ain't seen the sunshine sine I don't know when
    C                                              G    
I'm stuck at Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' on
         D7                                    G
But that train keeps rollin' on down to San Antone


G
When I was just a baby my Mama told me 'Son
                                           G7
always be a good boy; don't ever play with guns.
      C                                       G
But I shot the man in Reno, just to watch him die
       D7                                           G
when I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry
