Intro: D 
                         Em                              C 
Johnny is hiding in the bushes in the dirt with his new blue shoes 
                   D 
Scared of going home 
                           Em                               C 
His daddy said he's gonna beat him so he waits until he's sleeping 
             D 
On a bed of stone 

              C                           G 
When Johnny sings everything is changing colors 
                           Am 
And the sorrow's getting smaller 
          G                D 
And it's warm around your soul 
             C                              G 
When Johnny smiles all the angels must get jealous 
                            Am 
Cause he's got the looks of Elvis 
        G                   D 
And he just makes you feel fine 

                         Em                      C 
Johnny often stays with Mary, Mary isn't really caring 
                  D 
And has hardly time 
                            Em                                 C 
She didn't notice Johnny's missing then one day the cops came knocking 
                  D 
On her wooden door 

              C                           G 
When Johnny sings everything is changing colors 
                           Am 
And the sorrow's getting smaller 
          G                D 
And it's warm around your soul 
             C                              G 
When Johnny smiles all the angels must get jealous 
                            Am 
Cause he's got the looks of Elvis 
        G                   D 
And he just makes you feel fine 

D  Em C D Em C D 
Oooh... Oooh... 

              Em                             C 
And Mary's struggling on her own, nothing's right and nothing's wrong 
        G                                 D 
She was far too young and feeling left alone 
                Em                               C 
When they were knocking on her door, tears were falling on the floor 
          G                           D 
A little bird was flying to another shore 

              C                           G 
When Johnny sings everything is changing colors 
                           Am 
And the sorrow's getting smaller 
          G                D 
And it's warm around your soul 
             C                              G 
When Johnny smiles all the angels must get jealous 
                            Am 
Cause he's got the looks of Elvis 
        G                   D 
And he just makes you feel fine 

             C   G          D 
When Johnny sings, when he smiles 
             C   G              D 
When Johnny sings, and when he smiles
