Am                      G 
...I remember Johnny - hey!... Johnny come lately 
D                              F         G 
...I remember her shoes like a... ballerina 
Am                       G                            D 
...A girl called Johnny who... changed her name when she 
D                             F           G 
Discovered her choice was to change or to be changed 



Am                                   G 
... I remember a girl called Johnny... black as hell and white as a ghost 
D                                       F              G 
... Don't talk about life or death she said 'I've had enough of both' 
Am                       G                  D 
... A girl called Johnny who - was - not - scared  
D                                      F           G 
... They'd have torn her to pieces but who would dare?

Am Am G  G D D F G  x2 

Am                                  G 
... I remember a girl called Johnny... the train came to town, boy she got on it 
D                                         F                 G 
Without looking back, without a word she said goodbye, well I never heard 
Am                     
but the noise goes on, the noise, the jazz 
G  
And the truth is in somebody else's hands 
        D                                         F        G         Am 
And the house that a girl called johnny built is now-just-ash-es and sand 
            G              D       F        G          
Ashes and sand, ashes and sand
