Deep [A] down in Louisiana close to New Orleans

Where [A] lived a country boy named Johnny B.Goode
Who [E7] never ever learned to read or write so well,
But he could [A] play the UKULELE like a ringin’ a bell.
Chorus:
Go [A] go.....go Johnny go go go
[A] Go Johnny go go [D] go...
[D] Go Johnny go go [A] go
[A] Go Johnny go go [E7] go..... [E7*]

Verse 2:
He used to [A] put his UKULELE in a gunny sack and
Sit beneath a tree by the railroad track.
An [D] engineers could see him sitting in the shade
[A] strummin’ to the rhythm that the drivers made
[E7] People passing by... they would stop and say
Oh [A] my but how that little country boy can play.
Chorus:
Go [A] go.....go Johnny go go go
[A] Go Johnny go go [D] go...

His [A] mother told him “someday you will be a man”
And you will be the leader of a Big Uke Jam

[A] Hear your UKULELE till the sun go down
[E7] Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Sayin’ [A] ‘ Johnny B. Goode tonight’.
