Verse
Bm G D
Well me and Johnny on the road seeing rainbows doubled and looking for a pot o? gold
Bm G
But for every farm in Technicolor green there?s a bruising sky,
D
beneath we?re just maggots on the asphalt road
G F#m G A
Well every place has got its history, and you?d erase if it?d set you free
Bm G
But is it worth another landscaped wasted to just move on
D
Johnny, can?t we make the best of it?
Bm G
Johnny, I?ve sung with pleasure
D A
It?s a good life, there is no measure
Bm G
Hey Johnny, in the morning
D D
When you wake me, call me ?darling?
Verse
Bm G D
She?s gonna call me when she?s down just to knock me around, long about Michigan
Bm G
We wander parallel lives and I don?t know why,
D
Sometimes it hurts just to know she breathes
G F#m G A
Johnny, she?s got what I need, but she?s gonna let me bleed
Bm G D
And I?ll just be misty-eyed again at the Olympia-Inn, and adding to that pouring rain
Verse
G D A
Forget it Johnny, we were rocking? some kind of crazy scene
G D A
I set myself back, it?s just a land grab and I got more than I need
G A
And after all these miles, I?m just a homesick pup
D G
But I crossed this ocean to give it my best shot
