(Eamon McCann EMC Music)

[Verse 1]
C                                      G
There’s a place I keep in my heart for Johnny
                                   C
He taught me many things that is a fact
C
And when my school day was ore
     F
I’d close my bedroom door
         G                              C
I’d sit there and listen to the Man in Black
C
Sunday Morning Coming Down
          F
And Don’t take your guns to town
     G                                C
I’d sing along and then I’d learn the chords
C
I guess things happen that way
         F
Ring of fire and Ira Hayes
          G                            C
Were You There When They Crucified My Lord

[Chorus]
C7   F
His music and the songs
       C
Got me thinking right from wrong
F                   D               G
How things are not always what they seem
       C
He saw both sides of the argument
F              Dm
Bad desire and good intent
G                          C
Johnny had a big effect on me.

[Verse]
C                                    G
He had a wild side, that couldn’t be denied
                                   C
But then all of us have in our own way

Flosom prison blues ,
       F
Wanted man and boy named Sue
      G                      C
Were testimony to his darker days
        F
But he never got the difference
        C
In the prisoners and Presidents
G                                 C
They were all God’s children he’d say
         F
When the politicians of his day
C
Told him what he shouldn’t say
   G                          C
If it was true he’d say it anyway

[Chorus]
C7   F
His music and the songs
       C
Got me thinking right from wrong
F                   D               G
How things are not always what they seem
       C
He saw both sides of the argument
F              Dm
Bad desire and good intent
G                          C
Johnny had a big effect on me
C7   F
His music and the songs
       C
Got me thinking right from wrong
F                   D               G
How things are not always what they seem
       C
He saw both sides of the argument
F              Dm
Bad desire and good intent
G                          C
Johnny had a big effect on me

[Tag]
G
Johnny had a big effect
G
First time I heard Man In Black
G                           C   G  C
Lord he had a big effect on me
