G
Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
C
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
G
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
D
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
G
But he could play a guitar just like a-ringin' a bell
G
Go, go, go, Johnny, go
C
Go, go, Johnny, go
G
Go, go, Johnny, go
D
Go, go Johnny, go
G
Go, Johnny B. Goode
G
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
C
Oh, the engineers would see him sittin' in the shade
G
Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made
D
People passin' by they would stop and say
G
Oh my, but that little country boy can play
G
Go, go, go, Johnny, go
C
Go, go, Johnny, go
G
Go, go, Johnny, go
D
Go, go Johnny, go
G
Go, Johnny B. Goode
G
His mother told him: Some day you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
C
Many people comin' from miles around
G
To hear you play your music 'till the Sun go down
D
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
G
Sayin` Johnny B. Goode tonight
G
Go, go, go, Johnny, go
C
Go, go, Johnny, go
G
Go, go, Johnny, go
D
Go, go Johnny, go
G
Go, Johnny B. Goode
