Folsom Prison

C 
I hear the train a comin', it's rolling round the bend

and I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when,
      F                                                                       C 
I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on
           G 7                                                          C 
but that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Anton..

When I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,

always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.
       F                                                            C 
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
        G7                                                                      C    
when I hear that whistle blowing I hang my head and cry..

I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
they're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars.
Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
but those people keep a movin'  and that's what tortures me...

Well if they'd free me from this prison,  if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move just a little further down the line   
far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay
and I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away.....

Well, the shark has   pretty teeth dear, 

A7+5     A7       A7sus4  A7  D6

And he keeps them pearl - y white

         Bm                    Em

Just a jackknife has old MacHeath dear, 

G/B   A7sus4    A7       D      Cdim   A7

And he keeps it   out of sight.

When the shark bites with his teeth dear, 

Scarlet billows start to spread

Fancy gloves though wears old MacHeath dear, 

So there's never a trace of red

Sunday morning on the sidewalk, 

Lies a body oozing life

And some one's creeping around the corner, 

Could that some one be Mack the knife?

From a tug boat on the river 

A cement bag's dropping down

The cement's just for the weight dear, 

Five'll get you ten ol' Macky's back in town

Louis Miller disappeared dear, 

After drawing all his cash

And old MacHeath spends like a sailor --

Did our boy do someting rash?

Suky Tawdry, Jenny Diver, 

Look out, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Well, the line forms on the right girls, 

Now that Macky's back in town!

trivia: the Lotte Lenya whose name appears late in the song is, in fact, a real person -- she was an Austrian-born singer and actress with a lucrative career in the years between the world wars, and on Broadway following WWII. Fans of Broadway productions probably already knew her quite well; but even if you're not a theater-goer -- she played bad-gal Rosa Kleb in the James Bond movie "From Russia With Love" who tries to kill 007 by kicking him with her shoe/knife. (She also played a masseuse in Burt Reynolds' film "Semi Tough.

But that was long ago  Now my consolation   Is in the stardust of a song

F6                                                         Fm6         Fm6
Beside a garden wall  When stars are bright        You are in my arms        
       C                  Em            A7        Dm7                    A7        Dm7
The nightingale tells his fairy tale  A paradise where roses bloom
Fm6                    Dm7    Fm6    C        G      Am          C      B7
Though I dream in vain  In        my     heart it    will     re--main.
E7                F6            Dm7               G6         C6
My stardust melody   The memory of love's refrain

And brother rabbit of course   You better kiss your foot goodbye

The Tender Trap

C7 F6                                F#dim
Ya see a pair of laughing eyes,
        Cm7                              C7
And suddenly you're sighing sighs.
    Cm7                         F7
You're thinkin' nothin's wrong,
        Bbma7    A7                A+       Dm7-C#m7-Cm7-D7
You string along, boy, then SNAP!
      D7            D7
  Those  eyes, those sighs,
               Gm7          C7         F
 They're  part of the ten - der trap.

C7 F6                                F#dim
You're hand in hand beneath the trees,
        Cm7                              C7
And soon there's music in the breeze.
    Cm7                         F7
You're actin' kind of smart
        Bbma7    A7                A+       Dm7-C#m7-Cm7-D7
Until your heart just goes WHAP!
      D7            D7
Those  trees, that  breeze,
               Gm7          C7         F
They're  part of the ten - der trap.
Bridge:
F6                  Em7                 A7                      Dm7
Some starry night, when her kisses make you tingle,
F6                  Em7                 A7                      Dm7 G7 Gm7  C7
She'll hold you tight and you'll hate yourself for be - ing sin - gle.

C7 F6                                F#dim
And all at once it seems so nice,
        Cm7                                C7
The folks are throwin' shoes and rice.
      Cm7          F7
You hurry to a spot
Bbma7         A7                A+       Dm7-C#m7-Cm7-D7
 that's just a dot on the map.
      G7         Gm7              C7         Am7
You wonder how,  but it's too  late now
              Gm7             C7                           F    F6
  You    fell in love and love is the ten - der trap.

Where or When

G                 G6                              Gmaj7
It seems we stood and talked like this before
      Am7
We looked at each other in the same way then
                                                  Gmaj7   Em7   Am7   D7
But I can't remember where or when

G                 G6                              Gmaj7
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore 
      Am7
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
                                                  Gmaj7   F#m7 B7      
But I can't remember where or when               

Em                     Am                    F#m7  B7     F#m7 B7
Some things that happen for the first   time 
Em              Am7           Em7 A7   Am7   D7  
Seem to be happening again
G                 G6                              Gmaj7 G+
And so it seems that we have met before
        C6            Bm7       Am7       Bm7
And laughed before and loved before  
 E7   Am7        D7          G6     (Cm G) 
But who knows where or when.

Witchcraft

witchcraft.
D6
Those fingers in my hair,
Fdim
That sly, come hither stare
     Em7                   A7                          D6  /// // D7/
That strips my conscience bare - it's witchcraft.

Gmaj7
And I've got no defense for it;
Gm7
The heat is too intense for it -
Dm7                       E7+                           Amaj7 /// //
What good would common sense for it do?

  A7            DMaj7   D6     D       Em7    A7
'Cause it's witch --craft, wicked witchcraft,
 A7                   D9             D6      D9  G#m7-5    C#7
And although I know it's strictly ta---boo,

F#m
When you arouse a need in me,
F#m7
My heart says, "Yes, indeed!" to me -
Em                  Em7                              A7 // Eb7 /
Proceed with what you're leading me to.

D6
It's such an ancient pitch,
Fdim
But one I wouldn't switch,
Em7                       A7                       D6    Cdim  G/B  A7
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you.

(Second time)
Em7                       A7                     D6 /   Gdim /   D
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you.
