Johnny

intro: D
                         Em      
Johnny is hiding in the bushes in 
                        C
the dirt with his new blue shoes
                   D
Scared of going home
                           Em      
His daddy said he's gonna beat him 
                         C
so he waits until he's sleeping
             D
On a bed of stone

              C                
When Johnny sings everything is 
           G
changing colors
                           Am
And the sorrow's getting smaller
          G                D
And it's warm around your soul
             C                   
When Johnny smiles all the angels 
           G
must get jealous
                            Am
Cause he's got the looks of Elvis
        G                   D
And he just makes you feel fine

                         Em        
Johnny often stays with Mary, Mary 
              C
isn't really caring
Continues after the ad
                  D
And has hardly time
                            Em     
She didn't notice Johnny's missing 
                            C
then one day the cops came knocking
                  D
On her wooden door

              C                
When Johnny sings everything is 
           G
changing colors
                           Am
And the sorrow's getting smaller
          G                D
And it's warm around your soul
             C                   
When Johnny smiles all the angels 
           G
must get jealous
                            Am
Cause he's got the looks of Elvis
        G                   D
And he just makes you feel fine

D  Em C D Em C D
Oooh... Oooh...

              Em                 
And Mary's struggling on her own, 
            C
nothing's right and nothing's wrong
        G                        
She was far too young and feeling 
         D
left alone
                Em                 
When they were knocking on her 
              C
door, tears were falling on the 
floor
          G                        
A little bird was flying to another
   D
 shore

              C                
When Johnny sings everything is 
           G
changing colors
                           Am
And the sorrow's getting smaller
          G                D
And it's warm around your soul
             C                   
When Johnny smiles all the angels 
           G
must get jealous
                            Am
Cause he's got the looks of Elvis
        G                   D
And he just makes you feel fine

             C   G          D
When Johnny sings, when he smiles
             C   G           
When Johnny sings, and when he 
   D
smiles
