Verse 2

But I Cshot a man in Reno just to watch him Gdie
Now when D7I hear that lonesome whistle, I hang my head and Gcry
Lead Break
Verse 3
GI bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinking coffee and G7smoking big cigars
Well I Cknow I had it coming I know I can't be Gfree
But those D7people keep moving, And that's what tortures Gme
Harmonica Break
Verse 4
GWell if they free me from this prison, If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it all a little G7farther down the line
CFar from Folsom prison that's where I want to Gstay
And I'd D7let that lonesome whistle blow my blues aGway
