Johnny Cash – Folsom Prison Blues (Bass Live Tab)

Auto-scroll

This ‘Live’ recording by Johnny Cash is taken from his album ‘The Man In Black - Definitive Collection’. Bass performance Marshall Grant. Tab by bass50611. Despite umpteen bass tabs on UG there isn’t one that is in its original recorded key. I think you’ll find mine more or less as this live recording.
Intro:
