Bye Bye Johnny

Berry Chuck

   C
1. 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
R: Bye bye bye bye, Bye bye bye bye
   G               F                C
   Bye-bye Johnny, Goodbye Johnny B Goode

2. She remembered taking money earnt from gathering crop
   And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker's shop
   As long as he would play it by the railroad side
   He wouldn't get in trouble, he was satisfied
   But never thought there'd ever come a day like this
   When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss

R: Bye bye bye bye...

3. She finally got the letter she'd been dreaming of
   Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
   As soon as he was married he would bring her back
   And build a mansion for them by the railroad track
   So every time they heard the locomotive roar
   They'd be standing and waving in the kitchen door

R: Bye bye bye bye...
