Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode - Bass Cover chords

[Bb]
[Cm] [Bb] We were supposed to say,
we have [F] to act.
[Eb] [Bb]
See Johnny Louisiana, close to New [Gm] Orleans
Way back up in the woods
Among the [Eb] evergreen
I stood alone, cabin made of earth and [Gm] wood
Where lives a country boy named Johnny
[F] You never ever learned
To read or write so well
[Bb] But you can play a guitar just like a ring
And some pills go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, [Eb] go, go
Go Johnny, [Gm] go, go
Go Johnny, [F] go, go
Go [Bb] Johnny, go, go
He used to carry his [Gm] guitar
In a gunny sack
Or tip it in the tree by the railroad track
[Eb] Oh, there's an entertainer
[Cm] Dressed in his [Gm] shade
Strumming with the rhythm of the drive of man
[F] People passing by
They would stop and say,
[Bb] Oh my, was that a little country boy
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, [Eb] go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, [Bb] go, go
Go Johnny, [F] go

[F] [Bb]
Yes, my love, one day you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old [Eb] band
Many people coming from far and wide
[Bb] To hear you play your music
When the sun goes down
[Dm] Maybe someday your name will be in the light [Bb] band
Johnny, be good tonight
Go, go, go, Johnny, go
Go, go, go, Johnny, go
Go, [Eb] go, go, Johnny, [Cm] go
Go, [Gm] go, go, Johnny, go
Go Johnny, go
