[Verse 1]
     Bb
Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans,
Bb
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens,
      Eb
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
      Bb
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
    F
Who never ever learned to read or write so well,
             Bb
But he could play the guitar just like a ringin' a bell.
 
[Chorus]
Bb
Go! Go! Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 Eb
Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 Bb
Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 F               Bb
Go, Johnny, go! Go! Johnny B. Goode
 
[Verse 2]
            Bb
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack,
 
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track.
     Eb
Old engineers would see him sittin' in the shade,
  Bb
Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made.
       F
When people passed him by they would stop and say,
     Bb
'oh, my but that little country boy could play'
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Bb
Go! Go! Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 Eb
Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 Bb
Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 F               Bb
Go, Johnny, go! Go! Johnny B. Goode

[Verse 3]
      Bb
His mother told him, 'someday you will be a man,
 
You will be the leader of a big ol' band.
Eb
Many people comin' from miles around
       Bb
Will hear you play your music when the sun go down.
F
Maybe someday your name'll be in lights,
          Bb
Sayin' 'Johnny B. Goode tonight''
 
[Chorus]
Bb
Go! Go! Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 Eb
Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 Bb
Go, Johnny, go! Go!
                 F               Bb
Go, Johnny, go! Go! Johnny B. Goode
