A  
Deep down 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 ringing a bell

* Refr?o:
   A
Go go! Go, Johnny, go, go! 
                D
Go, Johnny, go go!
                A
Go, Johnny, go go! 
                E
Go, Johnny, go go!
            A
Johnny b. Goode!

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack

Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
D
Oh, the engineerswould see him sitting in the shade
  A
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
E
People passing by they would stop and say
    A
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.
D
Many people coming from miles around
   A
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
E
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
        A 
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight

* Repete refr?o.

 (Solo final)

Go go
