Home Of The Blues Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
C D G
Just around the corner there's heartache--

Down the street that losers use--

If you can wade in through the teardrops,

You'll find me at the Home of the Blues--
VERSE 2:
C D G
I walk and cry while my heartbeat
C D G
Keeps time with the drag of my shoes

The sun never shines through this window of mine
C D G
It's dark at the Home of the Blues
BREAK:

Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem'ries

Mem'ries so sweet that I cry

Dreams that I've had left me feelin' so bad,
Am Am Am D
I just want to give up and lay down and die
VERSE 3:

So if you've just lost your sweetheart,

And it seems there's no good way to choose

Just around the corner there's heartache

If You Could Read My Mind Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
Intro E
(Verse 1)
E
If you could read my mind, love
Dadd9
What a tale my thoughts could tell
E
Just like an old time movie
Dadd9
'bout a ghost from a wishing-well
E A
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
B C#m
With chains upon my feet
A E
You know that ghost is me
A C#m
And I will never be set free
Fm A E
As long as I'm a ghost you can't see
(Verse 2)
E
If I could read your mind, love
Dadd9
What a tale your thoughts could tell
E
Just like a paperback novel
Dadd9
The kind that drugstores sell
E A
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
B C#m
The hero would be me
A E
And heroes often fail
A C#m
And you won't read that book again
Fm B E
Because the ending's just too hard to take
(Middle section)
E Dadd9 E Dadd9
E A
I'd walk away like a movie star
B C#m
Who gets burned in a three way script
A E
And enter number two
A C#m
A movie queen to play the scene
Fm B A
Of bringing all the good things out in me
E
But for now, love, let's be real
A C#m
I never thought I could act this way
Fm B
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
A C#m
I don't know where we went wrong
Fm
But the feeling's gone
B E
And I just can't get it back
E Dadd9 E Dadd9
(Verse 3...)
E
If you could read my mind, love,
Dadd9
What a tale my thoughts could tell
E
Just like an old time movie
Dadd9
'bout a ghost from a wishing-well
E A
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
B C#m
With chains upon my feet
A E
The story always ends
A C#m
And if you read between the lines
Fm B C#m
Youll know that Im just trying to understand
A E
The feeling that you lack
A C#m
I never thought I could feel this way
Fm B
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
A C#m
I don't know where we went wrong
Fm
But the feeling's gone
B
And I just can't get it back
E Dadd9 end on E

Like The 309 Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
A
It should be a while before I see dark to death
So it would sure be nice if I could get my breath
Well im not the crying nor the whining kind
Till I hear the whistle of the 309,
(Sung)
D A
Of the 309, of the 309
E A
Put me and my box on the 309
A
Take me to the depot
Put me to bed
E A
Blow an electric fan on my knarly old head
A
Everybody take a look, see im doing fine
E A
Then load my box on the 309
D A
On the 309, on the 309
E A
Put me and my box on the 309
A
Hey sweet baby kiss me hard
E A
Draw my bath water Sweep my yard
A
Give a drink of my wine to my Jersey cow
E A
I wouldn't give a hootin' hell for my journey now
D A
On the 309, On the 309
A
I hear the sound of a railroad train
E A
The whistle blows and Im gone again
A
It will take me higher than a Georgia pine
E A
Stand back children its a 309
D A
It's a 309, It's a 309
E A
Put me and my box on a 309

A chicken in the pot, A turkey in the corn

Talk about luck, well I got mine

Asthma comin' down like the 309

Write me a letter, sing me a song

Tell me all about it, what I did wrong
A
Meanwhile I will be doing fine

Then load my box on the 309
D A
On the 309, On the 309

Long Black Veil Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
G C
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
D7 C G
Someone was killed, 'neath the town hall light
C
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
D7 C G
That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me
G C
The judge said son, what is your alibi
D7 C G
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die
C
I spoke not a word, al-tho' it meant my life
D7 C G
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
C G C G
She walks these hills in a long black veil
C G C G
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
C G
Nobody knows, nobody sees
C D7 G C G
Nobody knows but me
G C
The scaffold is high and eternity's near
D7 C G
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
C
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans
D7 C G
In a long black veil, she cries o'er my bones
C G C G
She walks these hills in a long black veil
C G C G
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
C G
Nobody knows, nobody sees
C D7 G C G
Nobody knows but me
Love's Been Good To Me Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
Am
I have been a rover,
D G Em7/C G
I have walked alone.
Am
Hiked a hundred highways,
D G G/F# Em
never found a home.
Em Cbm
Still in all I'm happy,
C Am
the reason is, you see
G Am C Am
Once in a while along the way,
G D G
Love's been good to me.
Am D
There was a girl in Denver,
Am D G G/F# Em
before the summer storms.
Em Cbm
Oh, her eyes were tender,
C D
oh, her arms were warm.
G G/F# Em G7
And she could smile away the thunder,
C Am
Kiss away the rain,
G Am C Am
And even though she's gone away,
G D G
you won't hear me complain
I have been a rover....
Am D
There was a girl in Portland,
Am D G G/F# Em
before the winter chill.
Em Cbm
We used to go a'courtin'
C D
Along October hill.
G G/F# Em G7
And she could laugh away the dark clouds,
C D
cry away the snow,
G Am C Am
it seems like only yesterday
G D G
as down the road I go.
I have been a rover... (To end)
Man In Black Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
A
Well you wonder why I always dress in black
B
Why you never see bright colors on my back
D A D A
And why does my appearance seem to have a sombre tone
B E7
Well there's a reason for the things that I have on
A
I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
B
Living in the hopeless hungry side of town
D A D A
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime
B E7
But who is still in there as a victim of the time
A
I wear the black for those who've never read
B
Or listened to the words that Jesus said
D A D A
About the road to happiness through love and charity
B E7
Why you'd think He's talking straight to you and me
A
Well we're doing mighty fine I do suppose
B
In our streak of lightning cars and fancy clothes
D A D A
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back
B E7
Up front there ought to be a man in black
A
I wear it for the sick and the lonely old
B
For the reckless ones whose bad trips left them cold
D A D A
I wear the black in mourning for the lives that could have been
B E7
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men
A
And I wear it for the thousands who have died
B
Believing that the Lord was on their side
D A D A
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died
B E7
Believing that we all were on their side
A
Well, there're things that never will be right I know
B
And things need changing everywhere you go
D A D A
But 'till we start to make a move to make a few things right
B A
You'll never see me wear a suit of white
A
And I'd love to wear a rainbow everyday
B
And tell the world that everything's okay
D A D A
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
B E7 A
Till things are brighter I'm the man in black
Meet Me In Heaven Chords and Lyrics
by: Johnny Cash
Capo 2
E
We saw houses falling from the sky
A E
Where the mountains lean down to the sand
A E
We saw blackbirds circling 'round an old castle keep
E B
And I stood on the cliff and held your hand
E
We walked troubles brooding wind swept hills
A E
And we loved and we laughed the pain away
A E A
At the end of the journey, when our last song is sung
E B E
Will you meet me in Heaven someday
Chorus:
A D A
Can't be sure of how's it's going to be
A D A
When we walk into the light across the bar
A D A
But I'll know you and you'll know me
A D E
Out there beyond the stars
We've seen the secret things revealed by God
And we heard what the angels had to say
Should you go first, or if you follow me
Will you meet me in Heaven someday
Instrumental
Living in a mansion on the streets of gold
At the corner of Grace and Rapture Way I
n sweet ecstasy while the ages roll
Will you meet me in Heaven someday
In sweet ecstasy while the ages roll
Will you meet in Heaven someday
END
