A5  
Deep down Louisiana close to New Orleans

Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
      D5  
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
      A5 
Where lived a country boy named Johnny b. Goode
    E5  
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
        A5
But he could play the guitar just like a ringing a bell

* Refr?o:
   A5
Go go! Go, Johnny, go, go! 
                D5
Go, Johnny, go go!
                A5
Go, Johnny, go go! 
                E5
Go, Johnny, go go!
            A5
Johnny b. Goode!

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack

Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
D5
Oh, the engineerswould see him sitting in the shade
  A5
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
E5
People passing by they would stop and say
    A5
Oh my that little country boy could play

* Repete refr?o.
 
 (Solo)

His mother told him "Someday you will be a man,

And you will be the leader of a big old band.
D5
Many people coming from miles around
   A5
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
E5
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
        A5 
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight

* Repete refr?o.

 (Solo final)

Go go
