Folsom Prison Blues (ver. 3)

	  		Folsom Prison Blues Original: 
I've seen old video footage of Johnny playing this in F 
with a capo on the 1st fret while he was playing an E chord 
and I've seen footage of him playing in E with no capo. 
I think most people play it in E so that's what I'm going  
to tab. 
Be sure and palm mute the rhythm on both versions
