F# (Intro) 


Verse 

Mr Johnson takes a walk 
he passes by the record store and sighs 
he considers entering but hesitates, it's silly 
cause it's just because he won't be recognized 


                 Ebm 
He played his guitar 
       F# 
what a star 
               Ebm                        G# 
he broke every heart, his clothes were so smart 
B          C# 
mr Johnson cries when 
B                               C# 
he recalls the days when he was everybody's face 


 

Mr Johnson, humpty-dumpty, sat upon the wall 
and had a great fall (had a great fall) 
and all the record companies and fat production managers 
could not get mr Johnson together again
