Alternate between the two. I left my guitar at home so here`s an

A E D A
Johnny was a school boy when he heard his first Beatles song
A E G A
Love Me Do, I think it was and from there it didn`t take him long
Got himself a guitar, used to play every night
Now he`s in a rock & roll outfit, and everything`s all right
A E
Don`t you know?
Johnny told his Momma, Hey Momma I`m goin` away
I`m gonna hit the big time, gonna be a big star someday
Momma came to the door with a tear drop in her eye
Johnny said, Don`t cry Momma smile & wave goodbye
Don`t you know, yeah, yeah
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
Don`t you know, don`t you know
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
And all the world will love you just as long
As long as you are
Johnny made a record, went straight up to number one
Suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing the song
Watching the world go by, surprisin` it goes so fast
Johnny looked around him and said, Well, I made the big time at
last
Don`t you know, don`t you know
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
Don`t you know, woah yeah
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star, yeah
And all the world will love you just as long
As long as you are, a shooting star
(guitar solo)
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
Don`t you know, ahhh
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
And all the world will love you just as long
As long as you are
Johnny died one night, died in his bed
Bottle of whiskey, sleepin` tablets by his head
Johnny`s life passed him by like a warm summer day
If you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play
Woah...
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
Don`t you know, don`t you know
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
Don`t you know
Don`t you know that you are a shooting star
Don`t you, don`t you, don`t you, don`t you, don`t you know
Don`t you know you are a shooting star
(improvise)
Na, na, na, na.. (to end)
