Chuck Berry – Johnny B Goode (Guitar Live)

As recorded by Chuck Berry (From the 1972 Album THE LONDON CHUCK BERRY SESSIONS) [Intro] C F C G C [Verse 1]

C
She drew out all her money at the Southern Trust

C
And put her little boy aboard a Greyhound Bus

F
Leavin' Louisiana for the Golden West

  C
A-down came her tears from her happiness

    G
Her own little son named Johnny B. Goode

             C
Was goin' to make some motion pictures out in Hollywood

[Chorus]

C
Bye-bye (Go Johnny go)

C
(Go, Johnny go)

F
(Go, Johnny go)

       C
(Go go go, Johnny go)

 G             C
(Go, Johnny B. Goode)

[Verse 2]

G  C
He carried his guitar in a gunny sack

C
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track

        F
Oh, the engineer would see him sittin' in the shade

C
Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made

G
People passin' by, they would stop and say

        C
"Oh my, but that little country boy could play"

[Chorus]

C
Whoa, go

C
(Go Johnny go, go, go)

                   F
(Go Johnny go, go, go)

                   C
(Go Johnny go, go, go)

                   G
(Go Johnny go, go, go)

F          C
(Johnny B. Goode)
