Well [A] if they´d free me from this prison,
if that [A] railroad train was mine
I [A] bet I´d move on over a little [A7] further down the line
[D] Far from Folsom prison, that's [D] where I want to [A] stay
And I´d [E7] let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [A] away
[A] I hear the train a comin´, it´s [A] rolling round the bend
And I ain´t seen the sunshine since [A7] I don´t know when

You Never Can Tell – Chuck Berry
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoDPPgWbfXY
It was a [C] teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well.
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoi[G7]selle.
And now the young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell,
'C'est la vie', say the old folks, it goes to show you never can [C] tell. [G7]
They furnished [C] off an apartment with a two room Roebuck sale.
The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger [G7] ale.
But when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well.
They had a [C] hi-fi phono, oh boy, did they let it blast.
Seven hundred little records, all rock, rhythm and [G7] jazz.
But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell.
They bought a [C] souped-up jitney, 'twas a cherry red '53.
They drove it down New Orleans to celebrate their anniversa[G7]ry.
It was there that Pierre was married to the lovely mademoiselle.
C'est la vie', say the old folks, it goes to show you never can [C] tell.

Oh he'll [D] greet you at the [A] door
And he'll gently lead you by the [E7] arm
Through the [A] dark recess of the mines

I Will Survive
Gloria Gaynor - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBR2G-iI3-I
[Am] First I was afraid I was [Dm] petrified
Kept thinking [G] I could never live without you [C] by my side
But then I [F] spent so many nights thinking [Dm] how you did me wrong
And I grew [E] strong and I learned [E7] how to get along
And so you’re back [Am] back from outer [Dm] space
I just walked [G] in to find you here with that sad [C] look upon your face
I should have [F] changed that stupid lock
I should have [Dm] made you leave your key
If I had [E] known for just second you’d be [E7] back to bother me
Go on now [Am] go, walk out the [Dm] door
Just turn [G] around now, cause you’re not [C] welcome anymore
[F] Weren’t you the one who tried to [Dm] hurt me with goodbyes?
Did you think I’d [E] crumble? Did you think I’d [E7] lay down and die?
Oh no not [Am] I, I will [Dm] survive
For as [G] long as I know how to love I [C] know I’ll stay alive
I’ve got [F] all my life to live, I’ve got [Dm] all my love to give
And I’ll [E] survive, I will [E7] survive—hey hey
[Am] [Dm] [G] [C]
[F] [Dm] [E] [E]
It took [Am] all the strength I had not to [Dm] fall apart,
Kept trying [G] hard to mend the pieces of my [C] broken heart
And I spent [F] oh so many nights just feeling [Dm] sorry for myself
I used to [E] cry, but now I [E7] hold my head up high
And you see [Am] me, somebody [Dm] new
I’m not that [G] chained up little person still in [C] love with you
And so you [F] felt like dropping in, and just [Dm] expect me to be free
And now I’m [E] savin’ all my lovin’ for [E7] someone who’s lovin’ me
Go on now [Am] go, walk out the [Dm] door
Just turn [G] around now, cause you’re not [C] welcome anymore
[F] Weren’t you the one who tried to [Dm] hurt me with goodbyes?
Did you think I’d [E] crumble? Did you think I’d [E7] lay down and die?
Oh no not [Am] I, I will [Dm] survive
For as [G] long as I know how to love I [C] know I’ll stay alive
I’ve got [F] all my life to live, I’ve got [Dm] all my love to give
And I’ll [E] survive, I will [E7] survive—hey hey

The [C] years go by, as [C7] quickly as a [F] wink
[F] Enjoy yourself, [C] enjoy yourself, it's [Dm] later [G7] than you [C] think
[C] You work and work for years and years, you're always on the [G7] go
[G7] You never take a minute off, too busy makin' [C] dough
Some[C]day, you say, you'll have your fun, [C7] when you're a million[F]aire
[F] But tell me how much [C] fun you'll have in your [Dm] old [G7] rockin' [C] chair
[C] You're gonna take that ocean trip, no matter, come what [G7] may
[G7] You've got your reservations made, but you just can't get [C] away
Next [C] year for sure, you'll see the world, [C7] you'll really get [F] around
[F] But how far can you [C] travel when you're six [Dm] feet [G7] under[C] ground?
[C] Your heart of hearts, your dream of dreams, your ravishing [G7] brunette
[G7]She's left you and she's now become somebody else's [C]pet
Lay [C] down that gun, don't try, my friend, [C7] to reach the great [F] beyond
[F] You'll have more fun [C] by reaching for a red [Dm] head [G7] or a [C] blonde
[C] You never go to nightclubs and you just don't care to [G7] dance;
[G7] You don't have time for silly things like moonlight and ro[C]mance.
You [C] only think of dollar bills tied [C7] neatly in a [F] stack;
[F] But when you kiss a [C] dollar bill, it doesn't [Dm]kiss [G7] you [C] back.
[C] You love somebody very much You'd like to set the [G7] date
[G7] But money doesn't grow on trees So you decide to [C] wait
You're [C] so afraid that you will bite off [C7] More than you can [F] chew
[F] Don't be afraid, you won't [C] have teeth When you reach [Dm] nine[G7]ty [C]two.
