Johnny B Goode Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A E D A

 DAeep down in Louisianna

Close to New Orleans

Way back up in the woods

Among the evergreens

 There stDand a country cabin

Made of clay and wood

 Where lAives a young country boy

Named Johnny B. Goode

 He nevEer ever learned

To read or write a book so well

 But he could plAay his guitar

Just like a-ringing a bell

 Go goA, go Johnny go go go!

 Go Johnny go go go! D

 Go Johnny go go go! A

 Go Johnny go go go! E

 Aah Johnny B. GAoode!

 He used to cAarry his guitar

In a gunny sack

Sit beneath the trees

By the railroad track

S

Oh sitting and a-playing

In the shade

 DrAumming to the rhythm

That the drivers made

 PEeople passing by

Used to stop and say

AMy oh my

That country boy can play

 Go goA, go Johnny go go go!

 Go Johnny go go go! D

 Go Johnny go go go! A

 Go Johnny go go go! E

 Aah Johnny B. GAoode!

Someday you will be a man

And you will be the leader

Of a big old band

 MDany people coming

From miles around

 To hAear you play your music

Till the sun goes down

 MEaybe some day

Your name will be in light

 Saying JAohnny B. Goode tonight!
