Verse 1
G
Deep down
in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods
among the evergreens
C
There stood a log cabin made
of earth and wood
G
Where lived a country boy
named Johnny B. Goode
D
Who never ever learned to
read or write so well
G
But he could play a guitar
just like a ringing a bell

He used to carry his guitar

G
in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree
by the railroad track

Oh, the engineer would see him
sitting in the shade
G
Strumming with the rhythm
that the drivers made
D
The people passing by,
they would stop and say
G
Oh my, but that little
country boy could play

His mother told him "Someday
you will be a man,
And you will be the leader

Many people coming from miles around

To hear you play your music

Maybe someday your
name'll be in lights
G
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight."
