[Am][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Picked up by the po[G]lice, [A]only seventeen.
[Am]What[F] did he do, what[G] did he say?
His [C]father left [G]him [A]as a little boy,
[Am]His moth[F]er turned tricks
[G]just to buy his [A]toys.
[Am]Seventy [A]two hour evaluation
[Am]Immedi[A]ate psychiatric help
[Am]But John[A]ny wasn't crazy
[Am]He was j[F]ust an a[G]ngry b[C]oy[Am]
[F][G][C][Am][F][G]
[C]Years later, [A]nothing much
has [Am]changed.
[F]Li quor, drugs,
and gangs have [G]made him a man.
[C]Living in the streets in [A]a world of his own,
[Am]He s[F]tops and watches his
[G]heart turn [A]to stone.
[Am]He's an [A]important person now
[Am]He's runni[A]ng with a wayward crowd
[Am]But [A]Johnny wasn't crazy
[Am]He was j[F]ust a lonely b[G]oy[A][Am][A][Am][F][G][Am][A]

[G]
[C]The[Am][F][G][C][Am][F][G]
[C]pain got too great,
an even[A]tual suicide,
[F]Fear and anger [G]were trapped deep inside.
If [C]only Johnny could have
[A]opened up his heart,
[Am]Then me an[F]d Johnny wouldn't
[G]never had to [A]part.
He's tired of running the vicious circle
[Am]He l[A]oaded and cocked h[Am]is .45
But [A]Johnny wasn't crazy
[Am]He was j[F]ust a frightened[G] boy[C]
[G]Oh,[F]
How [G]many Johnnys must there [C]be?
Oh [F]Johnny,[G][C][G][F][G]
[C][G][F][G][C][F]
[G]
How I wish you were [C]here.
