1.) "I Can't Help It"
[Verse]
N.C. A A7
Today, I passed you on the street
D A
And my heart fell at your feet
E7 A
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A A7
Somebody else stood by your side
D A
And he looked so satisfied
E7 A A7
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
[Chorus]
D A
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
E7 A A7
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
D A
Then suddenly, I got that old-time feeling
E7 A
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
[Bridge]
E7 A A7
[Chorus]
D A
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you
E7 A A7
And hold you just the way I used to do
D A
Oh, heaven only knows how much I miss you
E7 A
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
2.) "You Win Again"
[Intro]
G D7 G
[Verse 1]
C
The news is out all over town
G D7
That you've been seen out running 'round
G C
I know that I should leave, but then
G D7 G
I just can't go... you win again
[Chorus]
C G
This heart of mine could never see
D7
What everybody knew but me
G C
Just trusting you was my great sin
G D7
What can I do? (What can I do?)
G
You win again
[Bridge]
G D7 G
[Verse 2]
C
I'm sorry for your victim now
G D7
'cause soon his head, like mine, will bow
G C
He'll give his heart, but all in vain
G D7 G
And someday say... "You win again"
[Chorus]
C G
You have no heart, you have no shame
D7
You take true love and give the blame
G C
I guess that I should not complain
G D7
I love you still (I love you still)
G
You win again (again)
3.) "Hey Good Lookin'"

We could find us a brand new recipe?

I got a hot rod Ford and a two dollar bill

There's soda pop and the dancing's free
A7 D7
If you want to have fun, come along with me

How's about saving all your time for me?

No more looking
G
I know I've been tooken
A7 D7 G G7
How's about keeping steady company?
C G
I'm going to throw my datebook over the fence
C G
Find me one for five or ten cents
C G
Keep it 'til it's covered with age
A7 D7
Because I'm writing your name down on every page
[Chorus]
G
Say, hey, good looking
G
What you got cooking?
A7 D7 G
How's about cooking something up with me?

Maybe you were reckless yesterday

But together we can find a brighter way

In my heart, I know that you'll come through

Darling, I could never be ashamed of you

And it matters not what we go through
A A7
Darling, I could never be ashamed of you

Even though you prove to be untrue

Darling, I could never be ashamed of you

6.) "Straight A's in Love"
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E
Well, the reading and the writing and arithmetic
E
Never did get through to me
E
It ain't because I'm square or thick
B7 E
'cause I learned my A-B-C's
E
But when I graduated from the grammar school
E
And I moved one grade above
A
I began to be a snook at books
B7 E
But I made straight A's in love
[Chorus]
A
Now, the teacher would say to learn your algebray
E
But I'd bring home C's and D's
A
How could I make an A when there's a swinging maid
F#7 B7 N.C.
On the left and on the right and in the back and the front of me?
E
Oh, my grades are low on my card, I know
E
But they ought to give me one above
A
If they'd give me a mark for learning in the dark
B7 E
I'd have straight A's in love
[Interlude]
E
A
B7
E
[Verse 2]
E
Now, in my senior year, with graduation near
E
I did my homework every night
E
And when my mama said I oughta go to bed
B7 E
I'd turn out all the lights
E
But my sweetie pie was waiting right outside
E
She'd be a-cooing like a dove
A
Though I did my best, I failed semester test
B7 E
But I made straight A's in love
[Chorus]
A
Now, the teacher would say to learn your algebray
E
But I'd bring home C's and D's
A
How could I make an A when there's a swinging maid
F#7 B7 N.C.
On the left and on the right and in the back and the front of me?
E
Oh, my grades are low on my card, I know
E
But they ought to give me one above
A
If they'd give me a mark for learning in the dark
B7 E
I'd have straight A's in love

[*] Tune to Standard tuning at 450 Hz [*]
[Intro]
B7 E
[Verse 1]
E
I hear the train a-coming, it's rolling 'round the bend
E
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
A E
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, and time keeps dragging on
B7 E
But that train keeps a-rolling on down to San Antone
[Verse 2]
E
When I was just a baby, my Mama told me, "Son,
E
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns"
A E
But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die
B7 E
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry
[Solo]
E
A E
B7 E
[Verse 3]
E
I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
E
They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big cigars
A E
Well, I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
B7 E
But those people keep a-moving, and that's what tortures me
[Solo]
E
A E
B7 E
[Verse 4]
E
Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
E
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
A E
Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to stay
B7 E
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
8.) "Give My Love To Rose"
[Intro]
A E A

I found him by the railroad track this morning.

It won't last them long the way it goes.

Now don't forget to give my love to Rose.

Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes.
