[Verse 1]
[Am]Johnny was bad, even
as a child everybody could [C]tell
[Am]Everyone said, "If you don't get straight
You'll surely go to [C]hell"

[Pre-chorus 1]
[F]But Johnny didn't care
[C]He was an outlaw by the tim[Am]e
that he was ten years old
[F]He didn't want to do what he [G]was told
[Am]Just a prank[G]ster, juve[Am]nile gangster
[F]His teachers didn't understa[C]nd
They kicked him out of school
at a [Am]tender early age
Just be[F]cause
he didn't want to [G]learn things
[Am]Had other inte[G]rests
[Am]He liked to burn things!

[Pre-chorus 2]
[F]The lady down the block,
[C]She had a radio
that [Am]Johnny wanted oh so bad
[F]So he took it the first cha[G]nce he had
Then [Am]nearly shot her in the [G]leg
[Am]And this is what she said

[Chorus 1]
[Am]"Only a lad
You [F]really can't blame him"
[Am]"Only a lad
So[F]ciety made him"
[Am]"Only a lad
He's [F]our responsibili[G]ty"
Oh, [C]oh, oohh oh
[Am]"Only a lad
He [F]really couldn't help it"
[Am]"Only a lad
He [F]didn't want to do it"
[Am]"Only a lad
He's [F]underprivileged and a[G]bused"
Perhaps a [C]little bit confused?
[G]Oh oh ohhh, [C]oohhh whoa whoa whoa

[Verse 2]
His [Am]parents gave up,
they couldn't influence his [Am]attitude[C]
No[Am]body could help
The little man had no [C]gratitude

[Pre-chorus 3]
[F]And when he stole the car
[C]Nobody dreamed that he would
[Am]try to take it so far
[F]He didn't mean to hit the poo[G]r man
[Am]Who had to go and die[G]
[Am]It made the judge cry

[Chorus 2]
[Am]"Only a lad
He [F]really couldn't help it"
[Am]"Only a lad
He [F]didn't want to do it"
[Am]"Only a lad
He's [F]underprivileged and a[G]bused"
Perhaps a [C]little bit confused?
[G]Oh oh ohhh, [C]oohhh whoa whoa

[Bridge 1]
It's [Am]not his f[Ebdim7]ault that he can't[E] believe[Am]
Society [Ebdim7]made him go as[E]tray[Am]
Perhaps if we're [Ebdim7]nice he'll go awa[E]y[Am]
Per[F]haps he'll go a[C]way
He'll go a[F]way[C]

[Chorus 3]
[Am]"Only a lad
You [F]really can't blame him"
[Am]"Only a lad
So[F]ciety made him"
[Am]"Only a lad
He's [F]our responsibili[G]ty"[C]
[Am]Hey there Johnny
You [F]really can't don't fool me
You [Am]get away with murder
And you [F]think it's funny!
You [Am]don't give a damn
if we [F]live or if we die
[G]Oh oh oh, [C]ohh ohh ohh oh
[G]Hey there Johnny boy
