BmGD
Well me and Johnny on the road seeing rainbows doubled and looking for a pot o’ gold
BmG
But for every farm in Technicolor green there’s a bruising sky,
D
beneath we’re just maggots on the asphalt road
GF#mGA
Well every place has got its history, and you’d erase if it’d set you free
BmG
But is it worth another landscaped wasted to just move on
D
Johnny, can’t we make the best of it?
[Chorus]
BmG
Johnny, I’ve sung with pleasure
DA
It’s a good life, there is no measure
BmG
Hey Johnny, in the morning
DA
When you wake me, call me “darling”
[Verse]
BmGD
She’s gonna call me when she’s down just to knock me around, long about Michigan
BmG
We wander parallel lives and I don’t know why,
D
Sometimes it hurts just to know she breathes
GF#mGA
Johnny, she’s got what I need, but she’s gonna let me bleed
BmGD
And I’ll just be misty-eyed again at the Olympia-Inn, and adding to that pouring rain
[Verse]
GDA
Forget it Johnny, we were rocking’ some kind of crazy scene
GDA
I set myself back, it’s just a land grab and I got more than I need
GA
And after all these miles, I’m just a homesick pup
DBm
But I crossed this ocean to give it my best shot
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
BmG
Johnny, I’ve sung with pleasure
DA
It’s a good life, there is no measure
BmG
Hey Johnny, in the morning
DA
When you wake me, call me “darling”
BmG
Hey Johnny, in the morning
DABmG
When you wake me, call me “darling”
DABm
When you wake me, call me “darling”
