Johnny B Goode

JOHNNY B. GOODE

Written by Chuck Berry

INTRO: A      E   D   A

 A
Deep down in Louisianna

Close to New Orleans

Way back up in the woods

Among the evergreens
        D
There stand a country cabin

Made of clay and wood
       A
Where lives a young country boy

Named Johnny B. Goode
      E
He never ever learned

To read or write a book so well
               A
But he could play his guitar

Just like a-ringing a bell


     A
Go go, go Johnny go go go!
                    D
Go Johnny go go go!
                    A
Go Johnny go go go!
                    E
Go Johnny go go go!
               A
Aah Johnny B. Goode!


            A
He used to carry his guitar

In a gunny sack

Sit beneath the trees

By the railroad track
    S
Oh sitting and a-playing

In the shade
  A
Drumming to the rhythm

That the drivers made
 E
People passing by

Used to stop and say
A
My oh my

That country boy can play


     A
Go go, go Johnny go go go!
                    D
Go Johnny go go go!
                    A
Go Johnny go go go!
                    E
Go Johnny go go go!
               A
Aah Johnny B. Goode!


GUITAR SOLO: A   D   A      D      A      E       A   E   X2


          A
Well his mama told him

Someday you will be a man

And you will be the leader

Of a big old band
 D
Many people coming

From miles around
    A
To hear you play your music

Till the sun goes down
 E
Maybe some day

Your name will be in light
        A
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight!


     A
Go go, go Johnny go go go!
                    D
Go Johnny go go go!
                    A
Go Johnny go go go!
                    E
Go Johnny go go go!
               A
Aah Johnny B. Goode!
