Johnny B Goode Chords & Lyrics - The Beatles

INTRO: [A] [E] [D] [A]

D[A]eep down in Louisianna

Close to New Orleans

Way back up in the woods

Among the evergreens
There st[D]and a country cabin

Made of clay and wood
Where l[A]ives a young country boy

Named Johnny B. Goode
He nev[E]er ever learned

To read or write a book so well
But he could pl[A]ay his guitar

Just like a-ringing a bell

Go go[A] , 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. G[A]oode!

He used to c[A]arry his guitar

In a gunny sack

Sit beneath the trees

By the railroad track
S
Oh sitting and a-playing

In the shade
Dr[A]umming to the rhythm

That the drivers made
P[E]eople passing by

Used to stop and say
[A]My oh my

That country boy can play

Go go[A] , 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. G[A]oode!

GUITAR SOLO: [A] [D] [A] [D] [A] [E] [A] [E] X2

Well his m[A]ama told him

Someday you will be a man

And you will be the leader

Of a big old band
M[D]any people coming

From miles around
To h[A]ear you play your music

Till the sun goes down
M[E]aybe some day

Your name will be in light
Saying J[A]ohnny B. Goode tonight!

Go go[A] , 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. G[A]oode!
