BYE BYE JOHNNY - CHUCK BERRY

A combination of Chuck Berry/Rolling Stones/Status Quo versions


Original key = C


C
She drew out all her money at the Southern Trust

And put her little boy upon a Greyhound bus
F
Leaving Louisiana for the golden west
C
Down came the tears from her happiness
G
Her own little son named Johnny B Goode
C
Was going to make some motion pictures out in Holliwood


C F C
Bye bye bye bye, Bye bye bye bye
G F C
Bye-bye Johnny, Goodbye Johnny B Goode


C
She remembered taking money earnt from gathering crop

And buying Johnny`s guitar at a broker`s shop
F
As long as he would play it by the railroad side
C
He wouldn`t get in trouble, he was satisfied
G
But never thought there`d ever come a day like this
C
When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss


C F C
Bye bye bye bye, Bye bye bye bye
G F C
Bye-bye Johnny, Goodbye Johnny B Goode


[GUITAR SOLO]

C
She finally got the letter she`d been dreaming of

Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
F
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
C
And build a mansion for them by the railroad track
G
So every time they heard the locomotive roar
C
They`d be standing and waving in the kitchen door


C F C
Bye bye bye bye, Bye bye bye bye
G F C
Bye-bye Johnny, Goodbye Johnny B Goode


Repeat ad lib to fade
