[Bb]
[Eb] [F] [Bb]
[Fm] [Cm] [Bb]
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans way back up in the woods among the [Eb] evergreens
I stood alone having made a verse in [Bb] wood where lived a country boy named Johnny B.
[F] Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well, [Bbm] but he could play a guitar just like a ring in a bell Go, go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny [Ab] go go
[Eb] Go Johnny [Bb] go go
Go Johnny [Fm] go go
[Bb] Johnny B.
Goode
He used to carry his guitar [Bbm] in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
[Eb] Full engine everything sitting in the shade
Strumming [Bb] with the rhythm that the drivers made
[F] The people passing by they would stop and say
[Bb] Oh my what's that little country boy could play Go, go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny [Eb] go go
Go Johnny [Bb] go go
Go Johnny [F] go go
[Bb] Johnny B.
Goode
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
His mother told him someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old [Eb] band
Many people coming from miles [Bb] around
To hear you play your music when the sun go [F] down
Maybe someday your name will be in [Bb] lights saying
Johnny B.
Goode tonight
Go, go, go Johnny go
Go, go, go Johnny go
[Eb] Go, go, go [Ab] Johnny go
[Cm] Go, go, go [Bb] Johnny go
[F] Go
