The Letter That Johnny Walker Read

(início)

A
Johnny Walker sat at a table in a bar
E
Minding his own affairs
D                              E
Drinking his namesake over the rocks
He was drunk too drunk to care
       A
When a girl from the bar walked up beside him
    E
And this is what she said
           D                    E
She said a woman came by with a letter for you
                            A
And this is what the letter said
                                    E
Dear John please Johnny please come home
                                            A
I need your love and the kids they gotta be fed
                                         E
And John if you don't hurry back I'll be gone
Yes that's what the letter said
                              A
The letter that Johnny Walker read
                             E
Then John he got up from the table
D                          E
Slowly so slowly he walked outside
       A                               E
He was thinking of his wife and little children back at home
    D                    E           A
And how his drinking had ruined their lives
                                  E
Then John he stared off into that street light
     D                                      E
In a vision filled his poor poor heart with dread
            A                                   E
For you see folks it was him lying drunk in the gutter
D                         E                        A
Clutching in his hand the letter that Johnny Walker read
And this is what it said
E
Yes that's what the letter said
                              A
The letter that Johnny Walker read
E
Yes that's what the letter said
                              A
