Bye Bye Johnny

(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)

(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

(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

Bye-bye Johnny, Goodbye Johnny (B) Goode
