Verse:
Bb   F    C    Dm
Johnny robbed a bank,
Bb   F    C    Dm 
Safe and sound,
Bb   F    C    Dm
He wasn't foolish,
Bb   F    C   Dm
To brag about,
Bb   F    C    Dm
He spent his dough,
Bb   F    C   Dm
On a new home,
Bb   F    C   Dm
There wasn't a place,
Bb   F    C   Dm
He couldn't go.

Dm, Dm.

But the girl he met,

Was the best he'd ever seen,

He'd treat her kind,

And with esteem,

In the long run,

He asked her out,

She said I'm sorry chap,

You're not my man.

Dm, Dm.


Chorus:
F          C
Oh, Johnny,
F            C  
Get yourself on track,
Bb           C
Don't lose your mind,
Bb            C         Dm            Dm   
For a girl who taints your heart ( Run away from that nuclear attack ) .


Verse:

He never read the pulp,

And felt smart,

When she was vicious,

She cut men sharp,

But he still was determined,

To take risky ways in life,

It caught him up,

He paid the price.

Dm, Dm.

He'd say 'she's more,

Than icing on the cake',

But everybody else ignored,

That grinning face,

Like a child he was susceptible to feminine charm,

But to a man it can do a real harm.


Chorus:

Oh, Johnny,

Get yourself on track,

Don't lose your mind,

For a girl who taints your heart ( Run away from that nuclear attack ) .


Break ( In a Break chords are the same as in Verse but every chord is sustained twice as long ):

Bb      F            C        Dm 
But now Elizabeth is going mad,
Bb      F             C            Dm
For things she never wanted but could have had,
Bb      F              C            Dm
Johnny was the only that she could use,
Bb       F              C             Dm            
But now he's fallen out because that love was bruised.

Dm, Dm.

Instrumental:

Bb, F, C, Dm 4x.

Dm, Dm.


Chorus:

Oh, Johnny,

Get yourself on track,

Don't lose your mind,

For a girl who taints your heart( Run away from that nuclear attack ) .
