Chords

Written by Chuck Berry INTRO: C G F C

 C
Deep down in Louisianna

Close to New Orleans Way back up in the woods Among the evergreens

        F
There stand a country cabin

Made of clay and wood

       C
Where lives a young country boy

Named Johnny B. Goode

      G
He never ever learned

To read or write a book so well

               C
But he could play his guitar

Just like a-ringing a bell

     C
Go go, go Johnny go go go!

                    F
Go Johnny go go go!

                    C
Go Johnny go go go!

                    G
Go Johnny go go go!

               C
Aah Johnny B. Goode!

            C
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

  C
Drumming to the rhythm

That the drivers made

 G
People passing by

Used to stop and say

C
My oh my

That country boy can play

     C
Go go, go Johnny go go go!

                    F
Go Johnny go go go!

                    C
Go Johnny go go go!

                    G
Go Johnny go go go!

               C
Aah Johnny B. Goode!

          C
Well his mama told him

Someday you will be a man And you will be the leader Of a big old band

 F
Many people coming

From miles around

    C
To hear you play your music

Till the sun goes down

 G
Maybe some day

Your name will be in light
