Holy Johnny

• G

G 
My mate Jonny is a looker 

His habit is a one night stand 
C 
He used to walk the streets in the usual way 
D 
Oh what a pretty man 
G 
My mate Jonny is a lover 

Fell for the girl next door 
C                                   D 
She said "Jonny I can't be with you,you're pretty but you're also a bore" 
G                          C 
Finding love is not so easy 
Am                      D 
Cos people thought that he was too peculiar 
G                          C 
So what was left for poor old Jonny 
Am                         G             D 
At least he found out that Jesus loves ya 
G                           C 
Holy,Well he once was a whore 
D                               G 
And he's a priest now twenty four 
G 
Cos he's Holy 
                   C 
What he wanted the most 
         D                 G 
Now he's left with Holy Ghost 

Am                               D           G 
I prayed for Jonny, but now Jonny prays for me x2 

G 
My mate Jonny is a preacher 
As Holy as they come 
C 
He says"Follow the Lord and the Lord'll be good" 
       D 
And he even started calling me son 

G                         F       Am 
But God was good for poor old Jonny 
D                                        D 
He lived his life behind walls of religion 
G                     F      C 
But what was left was not so funny 
Am                                            D 
Cos I lost my friend to this new found position 

G                       C 
Holy,Well he once was a whore 
Am         D      G 
and he's a priest now twenty four 
G              C 
What he wanted most 
D                           G 
Now he's left with the Holy Ghost 
Am                          D              G 
I prayed for Jonny and now Jonny prays for me (3x)
