Deep

F                           F

down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans, Way

F                              F7

back up in the woods among the evergreens, There

Bb7                       Bb7

stood a log cabin made of earth and wood, Where

F   F

lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode. Who'd

C7       C7

never ever learned to read or write so well, But he could

F             F            

play the guitar just like a ringin' a bell. Go! Go!

F6 F6

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

F6       F6        F7

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

Bb9 Bb9

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

    

F6 F6              C7

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!          

C7 F6

   Johnny B. Goode

F6       F     F

   He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack, Go

F     F7

sit beneath the tree by the railroad track. Old

Bb7 Bb7

engineers would see him sittin' in the shade,

F    F

Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made. The

C7 C7

people passed him by they would stop and say,

F        F

Oh, my but that little country boy could play. Go! Go!

F6 F6

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

F6       F6        F7

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

Bb9 Bb9

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

    

F6 F6              C7

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!          

C7 F6  

   Johnny B. Goode

                

F6     F       F       

   His mother told him, ''Someday you will be a man,  And

F   F7

you will be the leader of a big old band.

Bb7 Bb7

Many people comin' from miles around, To

F   F

hear you play your music when the sun go down. May

C7       C7

be someday your name'll be in lights, A say in'

F   F

Johnny B. Goode tonight.'' Go! Go!

F6 F6

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

F6       F6        F7

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

Bb9 Bb9

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!

    

F6 F6              C7

     Go!   Johnny! Go! Go!          

C7 F6  C7+5 F Gb7 F6

   Johnny B. Goode
