Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I made up my mind a long time ago
I'd rather be dead than [F]live like
Johnny
[C]O
Than [F]live like
Johnny
[C]O[F]
[C]Now
Johnny
O is a fellow that lives in the woods
I tried to talk to him but it
[F]didn't do no good
[C]But it [F]didn't do no [C]good[F]
[C]Now let me tell you what led
Johnny astray.
He once loved a girl [F]by the name of
Sally
[C]May.
By the [F]name of
Sally
[C]May.[F][C]
Sally
May was beautiful but
Johnny was shy.
So she took to a fellow [F]by the name of
Billy
[C]Bly.
By the [F]name of
Billy
[C]Bly.[F]
[C]Now
Johnny couldn't stand it,
but he took all he could
When
Sally met
Billy,
Johnny [F]headed for the woods
[C]Johnny [F]headed for [C]the [F]woods
[C]If you're ever out hunting,
please shoot [F]with [C]care
Cause you may take
Johnny for [F]a grizzly b[C]ear
For a [F]grizzly [C]bear
Oh
[F]Johnny![C]
[F]
[C]Johnny
[F]Boy![C]
Johnny
[F]Boy![C]
Now you better be careful about
the love that you choose
This time it was
Johnny, next [F]time it could be [C]you
Johnny
[F]Boy![C]
Johnny
[F]Boy!
[C]John,
[F]John,
John,
John,
John
