Like The 309 Chords

(ver. 1)
Johnny Cash
[Intro]
Em*
    It should be a while, before I see doctor death
                                               Em*
So it would sure be nice if I could get my breath
 
Well I'm not the crying nor the whining kind
 
Till I hear the whistle of the 309,
 
[Verse 1]
         A5          E5
Of the 309, of the 309
    E5        E5/B       B  E5  E5/B  E5  E5/B
Put me and my box on the 3 09
 
[Verse 2]
E5             E5/B   E5
Take me to the depot, put me to bed
        E5/B     E5        B          E5
Blow an electric fan on my knarly old head
E5                            E5/B  E5
Everybody take a look see I'm doing fine
                        B E* E5
Then load my box on the 309
         Am  Asus4  A5       Em  Asus4  E5
On the 309,         on the 309
              E5/B  E5     B E5    E5/B  E5   E5/B
Put me and my box,  on the 309
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
E5        E5/B  E5
Hey sweet baby, kiss me hard
E5           Esus4  B/E      E5
Draw my bath water, Sweep my yard
E5                 E5/B  E5    E5
Give a drink of my wine, to my Jersey cow
           Em             E5           B5      E5
I wouldn't give a hootin' hell, for my journey now
 
[Bridge]
         A5      A5/E     E5     E5/B
On the 309,      On the 309
E5         E5/B   E5
I hear the sound, of a railroad train
                          E5/B  E5
The whistle blows and I'm gone again
E5              E5/B   E5
It will take me higher than a Georgia pine
E5         E5/B     E5    E5/B E5
Stand back children its a 3  0 9
E5       A5    A5/E     Em  E5
It's a 309,    It's a 309
              E5/B       B5 E5    E5
Put me and my box,  on a 3 09
 
[Instrumental]
E5   E5/B   Em    E5   E5/B   Em    E5   E5/B   Em   B5   E5
 
E5   E5/B   Em    E5   E5/B   Em    E5   E5/B   Em   B5   E5
 
[Verse 4]
E5               Em   E5
A chicken in the pot, and a turkey in the corn
        Em        E5          B       Em
I ain't felt this good, since jubalee morn'
E5         Em         E5
Talk about luck, well I got mine
                                 B Em     (E5)    (E5)
And asthma comin' down, like the 309  (Haaaahhh)
E5         Esus4             E5
Write me a letter, sing me a song
            Esus4          B/E    Em
Tell me all about it, what I did wrong
Em        Em7/G* E5
Meanwhile I,     will be doing fine
             E5/B E5     B E
Then load my box, on the 309
 
[Outro]
         A           Em    Esus4  E5
On the 309, On the 309
      Em        E5          E5/B E5
Gonna get outta here on the 3   09
