As recorded by Johnny Winter
(From the 1969 Album SECOND WINTER)
[Intro]
B5 E7 B7 F#7 B7
[Verse 1]
B7Way down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
B7Back up in the woods among the evergreens
E7Stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where B7lived a country boy name of Johnny B. Goode
Who F#7never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could B7play a guitar just like ringin' a bell
[Chorus]
B7Go go
B7Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go goE7
Go Johnny go goB7
Go Johnny go goF#7
Johnny B. GoodB7e
[Verse 2]
B7He use to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
B7Sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
E7Oh, sit beneath the trees there in the shade
B7Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made
F#7People passing by, they would stop and say
Oh myB7 but that little country boy can play
[Chorus]
B7Go go
B7Go Johnny go go go
Go Johnny go go goE7
Go Johnny go goB7

Oh, Johnny B. Goode

B7His mother told him, "Someday you will be a man
B7And you will be the leader of a rock and roll band
E7Many people comin' from miles around
To B7hear you play your guitar when the sun go down
F#7Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Sayin' JohnB7-ny B. Goode tonight
