Subject: Bruce springsteen has country in his guts too
Johnny Bye Bye - As performed by Bruce Springsteen
(Chuck Berry/Bruce Springsteen)
E A E
Well she drew out all her money from the Southern Trust
B E
And put her little boy on the Greyhound Bus
A E
Leaving Memphis with a guitar in his hand
B E
With a one way ticket to the Promised Land
A E
Hey little girl with the red dress on
B E
There's party tonight down in Memphis town
A E
I'll be going down there if you need a ride
B E | E | A E | E | B E
The man on the radio says Elvis Presley's died
A E
We drove to Memphis the sky was hard and black
B E
Up over the ridge came a white Cadillac
A E
They drawed out all his money and they laid him in the back
B E
A woman cried from the roadside "Oh he's gone, he's gone"
A E
They found him slumped up against the drain
B E
With a whole lotta trouble running through his veins
A E
Bye bye Johnny, Johnny bye bye
B E
You didn't have to die, you didn't have to die
