[Verse 1] 0:03
          F    Bb
Well, she drew out all her money out from southern trust
    Bb7
And put a little boy aboard a Greyhound bus
Eb
Leaving Louisiana for the golden west
Bb        Bb7            Bb
Down came tears from her happiness
    F
Her own little son named Johnny B. Goode
          Bb                               Bb7
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood
 
[Chorus] 0:22
        Bb                Bb 
I said, Bye bye, bye, bye
        Eb7           Bb     Bb7
I said, Bye bye, bye, bye
F                Eb               Bb     Eb
Bye bye Johnny,  Bye bye Johnny B Goode
 
[Verse 2] 0:39
         Bb
Well she remember taking money out from gathering crops
    Bb
And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
   Eb7
As long as he could play it by the railroad side
    Bb
And wouldn't get in trouble she'd be satisfied
F
Never thought there'd ever come a day like this
               Bb
When she would gladly give her son a goodbye kiss
 
[Chorus] 0:56
        Bb                Bb7 
I said, Bye bye, bye, bye
        Eb            Bb
I said, Bye bye, bye, bye
F                Eb               Bb       Eb
Bye bye Johnny,  Bye bye Johnny B Goode

[Verse 3] 1:30
         Bb
Well she finally got the letter she was dreaming of
                                 Bb7
Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
   Eb7
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
    Bb
And build a mansion for her by the railroad tracks
    F
And every time they heard the locomotive roar
            Bb7
They'd be a standing, waving In the kitchen door
 
[Outro] 1:48
        Bb7               Bb7
I said, Bye bye, bye, bye
        Eb7           Bb
I said, Bye bye, bye, bye
F                Eb               Bb        Bb 
Bye bye Johnny,  Bye bye Johnny B Goode
              Well, she drew out all her money out from southern trust
And put a little boy aboard a Greyhound bus
Leaving Louisiana for the golden west
Down came tears from her happiness

Her own little son named Johnny B. Goode
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood

Bye bye, bye, bye
Bye bye, bye, bye
Bye bye Johnny
Bye bye Johnny B Goode

Well she remember taking money out from gathering crops
And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
As long as he could play it by the railroad side
And wouldn't get in trouble she'd be satisfied

Never thought there'd ever come a day like this
When she would gladly give her son a goodbye kiss

Bye bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye Johnny
Bye bye Johnny B Goode

Well she finally got the letter she was dreaming of
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 tracks

And every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be a standing, waving In the kitchen door

Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye Johnny
Bye bye Johnny B Goode
