Verse 1:
[G] Love... is a [C] burning [G] thing

[G] Bound by [C] wild de[G]sire
I fell into a [D] ring of [G] fire..oh, oh, oh
Chorus:
[D] I fell in to a [C] burning ring of [G] fire

And it [G] burns, burns, burns
The [D] ring of [G] fire, the [D] ring of [G] fire
Verse 2:
The [G] taste... of [C] love is [G] sweet
When [G] hearts like [C] ours [G] meet
[G] I fell for you [C] like a [G] child
Oh but the [D] fire went [G] wild..oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
[D] I fell in to a [C] burning ring of [G] fire

[Verse 1]
I [C] hear the train a comin’... it's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since... [C7] I don't know when
I'm [F] stuck in Folsom prison... and time keeps draggin’ [C] on
But that [G7] train keeps a rollin’... on down to San An [C] ton
[Verse 2] (faster)
When [C] I was just a baby... my mama told me [C*] son [NC] [SON!]
Always be a good boy... don't [C7] ever play with guns
But I [F] shot a man in Reno... just to watch him [C] die
When I [G7] hear that whistle blowin’... I hang my head and [C] cry
[Verse 3] (even faster)
I [C] bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin’ coffee... and [C7] smoking big cigars
Well I [F] know I had it coming... I know I can't be [C] free
But those [G7] people keep a-movin’... and that's what tortures [C] me
[Verse 4] (very fast)
Well if they'd [C] free me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little [C7] farther down the line
[F] Far from Folsom prison... that's where I want to [C] stay
[Slow up]
And I'd [G7] let that lonesome whistle... blow my blues a-[C////]way
