Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Five  more miles to Folsom.
 This train  can't move too slow.
Ninety-nine  years at Folsom.
Then  they'll let me go.
Shot  a man in Dallas.
He  made a fool of me.
Thought  they never catch  me.
 How wrong  can one guy be.
 Let my love at the station.
 Cryin' in the rain.
 Broke her heart at the station.
 'Cause I couldn't explain.
 Sit and stare out my window.
 At someone else's moon.
 And ask why was I born.
 Ninety-nine years too soon
