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?

[Chorus]
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                 A
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                           Bm
But I crossed this ocean to give it my best shot

[Instrumental]
Bm  G  D  A
Bm  G  D  A

[Chorus]
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                 A
When you wake me, call me “darling”
Bm                 G
Hey Johnny, in the morning
D                 A                 Bm   G
When you wake me, call me “darling”
D                 A                 Bm
When you wake me, call me “darling”
