[Intro]
N.C. G5 C5
[Verse 1]
C5 Well she drew out all her money from the Southern trust C5 And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus F5 Leaving Louisiana for the golden west C5 Down came the tears from her happiness G5 Her own little son, named Johnny B. Goode C5 Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood
[Chorus]
C5 F5 C5 I said bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye bye-bye G5 F5 C5 G5 I said bye-bye Johnny, good bye Johnny B. Goode
[Verse 2]
C5 Weel, she remembered taking money out from gathering crops C5 And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop F5 Long as he would play it by the railroad side C5 And wouldn't get in trouble she'd be satisfied G5 Never thought there'd ever come a day like this C5 When she had to give her son a goodbye kiss
[Chorus]
C5 F5 C5 I said bye-bye, bye-bye, I said bye-bye bye-bye G5 F5 G5 I said bye-bye Johnny, good bye Johnny B. Goode

[Verse 3]
C5 Well she finally got the letter she was dreaming of C5 Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love F5 As soon as he was married he would bring her back C5 Build a mansion for them by the railroad track G5 Every time she heard a locomotive roar C5 She'd be standing and a-waiting by the kitchen door
