A
She drew out all her money out of the Southern Trust
A
And put her little boy aboard a Greyhound Bus
D
Leaving Louisiana for the Golden West
A
Down came the tears from her happiness
    E
Her own  little  son  name 'o Johnny B. Goode
          A
Was gonna  make some motion pictures out in Hollywood

[Chorus]
A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
D              A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
E
Bye bye Johnny
D                  A     E7
Good bye Johnny B. Goode

[Verse 1]
      A
She remembered taking money out from gathering crop
A
And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
   D
As long as he would play it by the railroad side
A
Keep him out of trouble he was satisfied
    E
But never thought that there would come a day like this
               A
When she would have to give her boy a goodbye kiss

[Chorus]
A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
D              A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
E
Bye bye Johnny
D                  A     E7
Good bye Johnny B. Goode

[Guitar Solo]

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

[Out-Chorus]
A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
D              A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
E
Bye bye Johnny
D                  A     E
Good bye Johnny B. Goode
A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
D              A
Bye, bye, bye, bye
E
Bye bye Johnny
D                  A
Good bye Johnny B. Goode
