Johnny B. Goode (ver. 2)

 A  
Deep  down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans,   
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens,   
  D  
There  stood a log cabin made of earth and wood   
  A  
Where  lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode   
  E  
Who  never ever learned to read or write so well,   
  A  
But he could  play the guitar just like a ringin' a bell.   

  A  
  Go! Go, Johnny, go!   
Go, go, Johnny, go!   
  D  
  Go, go, Johnny, go!   
  A  
  Go, go, Johnny, go!   
  E D A E  
  Go!  go, Johnny B.  Goode    

  A  
He used to  carry his guitar in a gunny sack,   
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track.   

  D  
Old  engineers would see him sittin' in the shade,   
  A  
  Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made.   
  E  
When  people passed him by they would stop and say,   
  A  
  'oh, my but that little country boy could play'   

Chorus:   

  A  
His  mother told him, 'someday you will be a man,   
You will be the leader of a big ol' band.   
  D  
  Many people comin' from miles around   
  A  
Will  hear you play your music when the sun go down.   
  E  
  Maybe someday your name'll be in lights,   
  A  
Sayin'  'Johnny B. Goode tonight''   

Chorus:
