Intro: Am Aadd11 Am G Am (x2) 

verse 1 

           Am            Aadd11 Am 
Johnny was raised in the city, 
Am     G         Am 
And in that he rejoiced. 
Am                    Aadd11 Am 
And the lovers he chose, 
Am     G       Am 
Didn't have no choice. 
Am                       Aadd11 Am 
And the lives that he tore, 
Am     G           Am 
Didn't lose him no sleep. 
Am                        Aadd11 Am 
And he knew he was a killer, 
G            Am 
On a winning streak. 

G           C                D Dsus4 D 
Is that any way for a man to live? 
D         G              C          D Dsus4 D 
When he's given all that he had, to give. 
D         G                C         D Dsus4 D 
Wasn't it strange, that he wanted to die? 
D         G             C      D 
Wasn't it strange, that nobody cried? 


verse 2 

     Am        Aadd11 Am 
Come winter of 65' 
Am     G                Am 
He was working the race track. 
Am                   Aadd11 Am 
He bet everything he had, 
Am       G                     Am 
Even the shirt on his friend's back. 
Am                        Aadd11 Am 
Got a tip about the horse from 
G          Am 
Gino the gorilla. 
Am                       Aadd11 Am 
Was the beginning of the end, 
Am      G           Am 
For our bold, young killer. 

G           C                D Dsus4 D 
Is that any way for a man to live? 
D         G              C          D Dsus4 D 
When he's given all that he had, to give. 
D         G                C         D Dsus4 D 
Wasn't it strange, that he wanted to die? 
D         G             C      D 
Wasn't it strange, that nobody cried?
 

Interlude 

Am Aadd11 Am G Am 

verse 3 

         Am           Aadd11 Am 
Gino had blown it and Johnny, 
Am G             Am 
He owed a lot of bread. 
Am                                           Aadd11 Am 
And he remembered what the boys had told him and, 
G      Am 
Johnny fled. 
Am                         Aadd11 Am 
They found him in the east river 
Am     G             Am 
With a bullet in his eye. 
Am             Aadd11 Am 
And Johnny was free 
Am     G      Am 
At the age of 25. 

G           C                D Dsus4 D 
Is that any way for a man to live? 
D         G              C          D Dsus4 D 
When he's given all that he had, to give. 
D         G                C         D Dsus4 D 
Wasn't it strange, that he wanted to die? 
D         G             C      D 
Wasn't it strange, that nobody cried? 


Bridge 

D                 G 
Lord, lord, lord, lord! 
G           C 
Is that any way for a, 
D 
A man to live? 
G               C 
When he's given all that he, 
D 
He had to give. 
          G 
Wasn't it strange? 
        C         D 
That he wanted to, 
D 
Up and die. 
          G       C 
Wasn't it strange? 
        D 
Nobody cried for this poor boy. 


G           C                D Dsus4 D 
Is that any way for a man to live? 
D         G              C          D Dsus4 D 
When he's given all that he had, to give. 
D         G                C         D Dsus4 D 
Wasn't it strange, that he wanted to die? 
D         G             C      D 
Wasn't it strange, that nobody cried?
