Folsom Prison Blues (chromatic) Harmonica Tab

By Johnny Cash
Key:G

G
-8 -8 -8 9 -9 7 7
I hear that train a-com-in’

-8 -8 -8 9 -9 -8
It’s rol-lin’ ’round the bend,
G#dim
-8 -8 -8 9 9* -9 7
And I ain’t seen the sun-shine,

7 -8 -8 -8 -7*
Since, I don’t know when,
C
-7* -7 7 -7 7 -7 7
I’m stuck in Fol-som Pri-son,
G
-7 -7 7 -7* 7 -5
And time keeps drag-gin’ on,
D7
-8 -8 -7 -7 -7 7 -5
But that train keeps a-rol-lin’,
G
-5 -5 -5 -55 -3*-3 3
On down to San An- tone.

When 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,
When I hear that whistle blowin’,
I hang my head and cry.

I bet there’s rich folks eatin’,
In a fancy dining car,
They’re probably drinkin’ coffee,
And smokin’ big cigars,
But I know I had it comin’,
I know I can’t be free,
But those people keep a-movin’,
And that’s what tortures me.

Well, if they freed me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine,
I bet I’d move out over a little,
Farther down the line,
Far from Folsom Prison,
That’s where I want to stay,
And I’d let that lonesome whistle,
Blow my Blues away.
