Folsom Prison Blues Johnny Cash

Hear this song at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1xSt7iganA (Key F – detune strings two semitones to play along)


[G] I hear the train a comin' it's rolling round the bend

And I ain't seen the sunshine since [G7] I don't know when

I'm [C] stuck in Folsom prison and time keeps draggin' [G] on

But that [D7] train keeps a rollin' on down to San An[G]ton

[G] When I was just a baby my mama told me son

Always be a good boy don't [G7] ever play with guns

But I [C] shot a man in Reno just to watch him [G] die

When I [D7] hear that whistle blowing

I hang my head and [G] cry

[G] I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car

They're probably drinkin' coffee and [G7] smoking big cigars

Well I [C] know I had it coming I know I can't be [G] free

But those [D7] people keep a movin'

And that's what tortures [G] me

[G] Well if they'd free me from this prison

If that railroad train was mine

I bet I'd move it all a little [G7] further down the line

[C] Far from Folsom prison that's where I want to [G] stay

And I'd [D7] let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a[G]way

When [F] I search for [C] fun in the [D] sun

[G] I tell you what I'll [Bm] do (what will you do)

I'd [Csus4] like to go there [C] now with you

[G] You can miss out [Bm] school (won't that be cool)

I Will Survive Gloria Gaynor Hear this song at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv6lHwWwO3w

[Dm] At first I was afraid I was [Gm7] petrified Kept thinkin' [C] I could never live without you [Fmaj7] by my side; But then I [Bbmaj7] spent so many nights thinkin' [Gm7] how you did me wrong And I grew [A] strong I learned [A7] how to get along

[Dm] And so you're back from outer [Gm7] space I just walked [C] in to find you here with that sad [Fmaj7] look upon your face I should have [Bbmaj7] changed that stupid lock I should have [Gm7] made you leave your key If I'd've [A] known for just one second you'd be [A7] back to bother me

Chorus: [Dm] Go on now walk out the [Gm7] door Just turn a[C]round now 'cause you're not [Fmaj7] welcome anymore Weren't [Bbmaj7] you the one who tried to [Gm7] hurt me with goodbye Did I [A] crumble Did you think I'd [A7] lay down and die?

[Dm] Oh no, not I I will sur[Gm7]vive Oh as [C] long as I know how to love I [Fmaj7] know I'll stay alive; I've got [Bbmaj7] all my life to live I've got [Gm7] all my love to give and I'll sur[A]vive, I will sur[A7]vive.

[Dm] It took all the strength I had not to [Gm7] fall apart Kept trying' [C] hard to mend the pieces of my [Fmaj7] broken heart, And I [Bbmaj7] spent oh so many nights just feeling [Gm7] sorry for myself. I used to [A] cry but now I [A7] hold my head up high

[Dm] And you see me somebody [Gm7] new I'm not that [C] chained up little person [Fmaj7] still in love with you, And so you [Bbmaj7] feel like droppin' in and just ex[Gm7]pect me to be free, Now I'm [A] savin' all my lovin' for some[A7]one who's lovin' me

You’re So Vain

Carly Simon (1972)

INTRO: / 1 2 3 4 / [Am] / [Am]

You [Am] walked into the party Like you were [F] walking onto a [Am] yacht

Your hat stra-[Am]tegically dipped below one eye

Your [F] scarf it was apri-[Am]cot You had [F] one eye [G] in the [Em] mirror [Am] as

You [F] watched yourself ga-[C]votte, and all the [G] girls dreamed that

[F] They’d be your partner, they’d be your partner, and

[C] You’re so vain

You [Dm] probably think this song is a-[C]bout you

You’re so [Am] vain I’ll [F] bet you think this song is a-[G]bout you, don’t you [G] don’t you

Oh, you [Am] had me several years ago

When [F] I was still quite na-[Am]ive When you [Am] said that we made such a pretty pair

And [F] that you would never [Am] leave

But you [F] gave a-[G]way the [Em] things you [Am] loved And [F] one of them was [C] me, I had some [G] dreams

They were [F] clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee, and

[C] You’re so vain You [Dm] probably think this song is a-[C]bout you

You’re so [Am] vain

I’ll [F] bet you think this song is a-[G]bout you, don’t you [G] don’t you

Well I [Am] hear you went up to Saratoga

And [F] your horse naturally [Am] won

Then you [Am] flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia To see the [F] total eclipse of the [Am] sun
