Bye, Bye Johnny Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
She [G]drew [D]out[G] all her money
at the Southern Trust
And put her little boy
aboard a Greyhound bus
Leav[C]ing Louisiana for the Golden West
[G]Down came the tears
from her happiness
Her [D]own little son named
Johnny B. Goode
Was gonna [G]make some motion pictures
out in Hollywood
Bye, bye, bye, bye
[C]Bye, [G]bye, [F]bye, [Dm]bye[G]
[D]Bye, bye, Johnny
Goodbye, Johnny, [G]be [D]good
She re[G]membered takin' money
from a gatherin' crops
And buying Johnny's guitar
at a poker shop
As [C]long as he could play it
by the railroad sign
And [G]wouldn't get in trouble,
she was satisfied
But never [D]thought she'd ever
come a day like this
Well, you'd [G]have to give your own son
a goodbye kiss
Sayin' bye, bye, bye, bye
[C]Bye, bye, [G]bye, bye
Bye, [D]bye
Johnny, goodbye
Johnny B. [G]Goode[C][F][C]
[G][D]
[G][D]
She [G]fi nally got the letter
she'd been dreaming of
Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
As [C]soon as she was married
he would bring [F]her back
And [G]build a mansion for them
by the railroad track
[C]So [D]every time they heard the
locomotive roar
They'd be [G]standing and a -waving
in the kitchen door
Saying bye, bye, bye, bye
[C]Bye, [G]bye, bye, bye
[D]Bye, bye
Johnny, goodbye
Johnny, [G]be good
