Chuck Berry - Bye Bye Johnny: chords

C
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

Chorus:
C                 F           C
Bye bye bye bye, Bye bye bye bye
G                                  C
Bye-bye Johnny, Goodbye Johnny B Goode

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

Chorus:
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye Johnny
Bye-bye Johnny B. Goode

She finally got the letter she was dreaming of
And 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 her by the railroad track
So every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be a standing, a waving in the kitchen door

Chorus:
Howling bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye Johnny
Good-bye Johnny B. Goode
