Verse 1
She A drew out all her money out of the Southern Trust

A Down came the tears from her happiness
Her E7 own little son named Johnny B. Goode was gonna
A make some motion pictures out in Hollywood

Chorus 1

E7 Bye bye Johnny, D Good bye Johnny B. A Goode

Verse 2
She reA membered taking money out from gathering crop
And A buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
As D long as he would play it by the railroad side
And A wouldn't get in trouble he was satisfied
But E7 never thought that there would come a day like this
When she would A have to give her son a goodbye kiss

Chorus 1  A Bye, bye....
Verse 3
She A finally got the letter she was dreaming of
A Johnny wrote and told 'er he had fell in love
As D soon as he was married he would bring her back
And A build a mansion for 'em by the railroad track
So E7 every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be A standin' and a-wavin' in the kitchen door

Chorus 1 QUIETLY A Bye, bye...........

NC Just gimme some o' that

Chorus 2
A Rockin rollin music,any old way you choose it
It's got a D backbeat, you can't lose it, A any old time you use it
It's E7 gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with A me
E7 If you wanna dance with A me,

Verse I have no kick against E7 modern jazz, unless they try to play it A too darn fast
And change the beauty of the D melody, until they sound just like a E7 symphony
That's why I go for that

Chorus 2 A Rockin rollin music.....

Verse I took my love on over 'E7 cross the tracks, so she can hear my man a-A wail a sax
I must admit they really D got to me, as they were jamming that E7 ukulele
So just gimme that

Chorus 2 A Rockin rollin music....

Way down south they had a E7 jubilee, those Georgie folks they had a A jamboree
They're drinkin homebrew from a D wooden cup, the folks all dancin got E7 all shookup
And started playing that

Chorus 2 A Rockin rollin music....
Chorus 1 A Bye, bye, bye, bye, D Bye, bye, bye, bye
E7 Bye bye Johnny, D Good bye Johnny B. A Goode  A///
