		    A
They call him Sweet, Sweet Johnny, oh,
D		   E		A
Sweeter than the month of May

And if Johnny, he's in town there ain't no way
D			E		A
The girls would go to school that day
F#m				B
See him and that girl dancing cheek to cheek
	D			E
Oh I wish it was me, 'cos they look so sweet
				   A
And they never come round no more
	E		     D
Since Hollywood opened the door

A		G  A	A	    G   A
Sweet, Sweet Johnny, heil, heil, Heather X4


The next verse is done in a status quo style, i.e
The A chord played barred with middle and 4th finger playing the a, and d 
strings on the 7th fret and the little finger hammering on and off on the 
9th fret on the a string

E----5----5-----5------5
B----5----5-----5------5
G----5----5-----5------5
D----7----7-----7------7
A--- 7----7-----9------7
E----5----5-----5------5




Oh, heil, heil, Heather, oh
Salute her when she walks down the street
And if Heather happens to be on the beach
You know the boys won't be too far out of reach.
Why don't I get my Daddy's car
And knock those fuckers down 'cos they've gone too far
And they never come round no more
Since Hollywood opened the door


A		G  A	A	    G   A
Sweet, Sweet Johnny, heil, heil, Heather X4      	then keep playing the 
chorus chords 								          leading into jazz-style cacaphony

A	D	E
I feel so alone tonight, and there's
A		D	E
No-one on the telephone
A			D	E 		A
You come over, yes that'll be right, and I said
			D	E		A
What a way to spend a Saturday night, and I went
		D  E   A (etc)
Do doot do do, do do do do X4
