Chords

Written by Chuck Berry INTRO: A E D A
 A
Deep down in Louisianna
Close to New Orleans Way back up in the woods Among the evergreens
        D
There stand a country cabin
Made of clay and wood
       A
Where lives a young country boy
Named Johnny B. Goode
      E
He never ever learned
To read or write a book so well
               A
But he could play his guitar
Just like a-ringing a bell
     A
Go go, go Johnny go go go!

                    D
Go Johnny go go go!

                    A
Go Johnny go go go!

                    E
Go Johnny go go go!

               A
Aah Johnny B. Goode!

            A
He used to carry his guitar
In a gunny sack Sit beneath the trees By the railroad track S Oh sitting and a-playing In the shade
  A
Drumming to the rhythm
That the drivers made
 E
People passing by
Used to stop and say
A
My oh my
That country boy can play
     A
Go go, go Johnny go go go!

                    D
Go Johnny go go go!

                    A
Go Johnny go go go!

                    E
Go Johnny go go go!

               A
Aah Johnny B. Goode!
GUITAR SOLO: A D A D A E A E X2
          A
Well his mama told him
Someday you will be a man And you will be the leader Of a big old band
 D
Many people coming
From miles around
    A
To hear you play your music
Till the sun goes down
 E
Maybe some day
Your name will be in light
        A
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight!

     A
Go go, go Johnny go go go!

                    D
Go Johnny go go go!

                    A
Go Johnny go go go!

                    E
Go Johnny go go go!

               A
Aah Johnny B. Goode!
