Shooting Star

A           E

JOHNY MADE A RECORD WENT STRAIGHT UP TO NUMBER 1

SUDDENLY EVERY ONE LOVED TO HEAR HIM SING HIS SONG

WATCHIN THE WORLD GO BY SUPRIZING  IT GO'S SO FAST

JOHNY LOOKED AROUND HIM AND SAID WELL I MADE THE BIG TIME AT LAST

Chorus

SOLO

Chorus

JOHNY DIED ONE NIGHT DIED IN HIS BED

A BOTTLE OF WHISKY SLEEPIN TABLITS BY HIS HEAD

JOHNY'S LIFE PASSED HIM BY LIKE A WARM SUMMER DAY

IF YOU LISTEN TO THE WIND YOU CAN STILL HEAR HIM PLAY
