He was discovered one day seems he 
had

a certain appeal to certain kind

Prechorus

So tell me who'll take the blame
   F



For the way things turned out

Verse 2 - same pattern as 1st

Well six long months passed and 
Johnny
was the hottest thing alive
We loved Johnny and we owned Johnny
Nobody knew how Johnny felt inside
But Johnny was beautiful he was like
 a God
We all went along for the ride
The ride started to go too fast
Johnny just conviently died


Prechorus 2(same as 1st)
And he went up in flames
He did what he had to do


Chorus

F        G         G/A G/B   D
And they say its a trag-ic   story

        F                C   F C
He just wasn't there one day

            G        G/A   G/B  
But he went out in a blaze of   
D
glory

F           C  F              C 
And you and I, you and I just 
   Asus2
fade away

Verse 3 - same as other two
Well now days there's lots of guys 
like Johnny
They got it all worked out, like 
working nine to five
But they're all cartoons, they all 
think they're superman
But they can't even fly
They say that Johnny's ghost walks 
down in Memphis
Wehn the moon is full and high
And I wonder if he sees these jokers
I wonder if he laughs or if he cries

Prechorus - same
Now he's an angel in flames
but what about you and me.
