[Verse 1] I [E] hear the train a-coming, it's rolling round the bend and I ain't seen the sunshine since [E7] I don't know when I'm [A] stuck at Folsom Prison, and time keeps draggin' [E] on But that [B7] train keeps a-rollin' on down to San A [E] ntone
[Verse 2] When [E] I was just a baby, my Mama told me 'Son, always be a good boy; don't e [E7] ver play with guns.' But I [A] shot a man in Reno, just to watch him di [E] e when I [B7] hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and [E] cry
[Solo] E | E7 | E | E7 A | A | E | E B7| B7| E |
[Verse 3] I [E] bet there's rich folks eatin' from a fancy dining car They're probably drinking coffee and s [E7] moking big cigars But I [A] know I had it coming, I know I can't be [E] free But tho [B7] se people keep a moving, and that's what [E] tortures me
[Solo] E | E7 | E | E7 A | A | E | E B7| B7| E |
[Verse 4] Well, if they [E] freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine I bet I'd move it on a little [E7] farther down the line [A] Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to [E] stay And I'd [B7] let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a [E] way
[End] [Notes] Solo whilst playing backbeat 1. Play up with first finger off beat notes against the snare hits - mainly notes on B and high E string - add vibrato and slides to make it lively - use little finger to fret notes so can mute rest of strings with other fingers of left hand - can also play double stops and 3 notes pull offs (i.e. E - 5p3p0) Can use 3rd finger if want to apply more vibrato and give left hand more space to work against the capo Rhythm 1 2&1&2&1 ------ B-S-B-S-S but for Guido blues shuffle Capo: 1st fret for original - RIFF 0221 4221 then A is x0222 x4222
