Strumming pattern DxDUDxDU

EI hear the train a-comin'; it's rollin'

'round the bendE7

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

AI'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time

E keeps draggin' on

B7But that train keeps a-rollin' on down

E to San Antone

EWhen I was just a baby, my mama told

me, "SonE7

Always be a good boy; don't ever play with guns"

ABut I shot a man in Reno, just to

E watch him die

B7When I hear that whistle blowin', I

E hang my head and cry


EI bet there's rich folk eatin' in a fancy

dinin' car

They're prob'ly drinkin' coffee andE7 smokin' big cigars

ABut I know I had it comin', I know I

E can't be free

B7But those people keep a-movin', and

E that's what tortures me

EWell if they freed me from this prison,

if that railroad train was mineE7

I bet I'd move it all a little farther down the line

AFar from Folsom Prison, that's where

E I'd want to stay

B7And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow

E my blues away

27. Sway

Dean Martin

Dm AWhen Marimba Rhythms start to play

A7 Dm Dance with me, make me sway

Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore Holdme close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breezeBend with me, sway with ease

When we dance you have a way withme Stay with me, sway with me

AOther dancers may be on the floor

F Dear, but my eyes will see only you

AOnly you have the magic technique

Bb A When we sway I grow weak

I can hear the sounds of violins Longbefore it begins

Make me thrill as only you know howSway me smooth, sway me now

chorus

I can hear the sounds of violins Longbefore it begins


Make me thrill as only you know howSway me smooth, sway me now

A A7 DmYou know how Sway me smooth, sway

me nowA A7 DmYou know how Sway me smooth, sway

me now
