A minorAm DmDm
I heard he played the deathnail for a big band,
E MajorE A minorAm
He drank himself into an early grave.
A minorAm DmDm
He carried a gun and a bottle of tequila,
E MajorE A minorAm
His fingers flew like fire when he played.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Play it slowly, play it soft and low.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Johnny’s laying down now six below.
A minorAm DmDm
He played for women and he played for money,
E MajorE A minorAm
He took their silver and he took their fame.
A minorAm DmDm
He followed them into their secret bedrooms.
E MajorE A minorAm
He made the wildest cats go calm and tame.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Play it slowly, play it soft and low.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Johnny‘s laying down now six below.
A minorAm DmDm
At last he danced with a lady, who was taken,
E MajorE A minorAm
He twirled her once to many on the floor.
A minorAm DmDm
Her husband was man of great importance,
E MajorE A minorAm
Now Johnny isn’t dancing anymore.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Play it slowly, play it soft and low.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Johnny’s laying down now six below.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Play it slowly, play it soft and low.
FF C majorC
Play the bajo sexto now for Johnny,
E MajorE A minorAm
Johnny’s laying down now six below.
The End!
