Lyrics
Artist: Tom Russell
[INTRO]
[G]

[VERSE]
[G]Roll the credits, Johnny
You up there in the pro[C]jection booth
Our dream-time is [G]over
Time to put our shoes on and hit the [D]street

[VERSE]
[C]But wasn't it [G]beautiful?
Didn't we forget about the [C]sad times for awhile?
The good guys [G]won
The bad guys tasted bitterness and de[D]feat

[VERSE]
We kissed the leading [G]ladies
Felt the warmth of their [C]deep caress
Drank with kings and [G]prophets
We rode rocket ships to the [D]stars

[VERSE]
But it's dark now on the [G]streets of life
"Christ, I think I lost my [C]pocket knife in there
Goddamn it, Johnny, I [G]can't even remember where in hell
We parked the [D]car"

[CHORUS]
But singing keeps the [C]fear away
And whistling keeps the [G]wolves at bay
[G]Remembering all we might have been
[G]All the love that could have been
Let's storm the old ram[D]parts
Let's sing the [C]love songs
From old [D]movies in our [G]hearts [C] [D] [G]

[VERSE]

The way she held her hair back with her hand
Christ, I wish I was her [C]leading man
She knows more than you'll [G]ever know, talks to birds and animals
Why won't she talk to [D]me?

[VERSE]
Wish she could just [G]step down off the screen
That little blond in [C]tight black jeans
Christ, I'm losing my [G]mind now, Johnny
The crows are laughing at us, up in the [D]trees

[CHORUS]
But singing keeps the [C]fear away
And whistling keeps the [G]wolves at bay
[G]Remembering all we might have been
[G]All the love that could have been
Let's storm the old ram[D]parts
Let's sing those [C]love songs
From old [D]movies in our [G]hearts [C] [D] [G]
Let's sing old [C]love songs
From the [D]movies in our [G]hearts

[OUTRO]
[C]Roll the [G]credits, Johnny
Hey, [C]roll the [G]credits, Johnny
[C]Roll the [G]credits, Johnny
