Tom: E
E
[Verse]
E
Mr. Johnny knows that book just like the back of his hand
B A
"Trust in the lord, man, he''ll take you to the promised land,"
E
As he shakes the bible in his hand.
E
Mr. Johnny's got his tent and he's got his fans
B A
Fancy cars in the driveway and the people say "Look at this."
E
They don't know his ignorance is bliss.
[Chorus]
E B A
Screaming "love thy neighbor" as he laughs at midgets on TV,
E B A
Thumbing the cross around his neck and trying sobriety.
E B A
He looks so peculiar through his specs, 'cause he still can't see.
E
Is it clear to anyone but me? Is he kidding anyone but me?
[Verse]
E
Mr. Johnny knows not much and he knows it well.
B A
Two types if people, those to heaven and those to hell.
E
He takes a drag but he doesn't inhale.
E
Somewhere down that long tough and winding path
B A
Mr Johnny's golden rule turn the water green crimson black
E
His fundamentals are a thing of the past
[Chorus]
E B A
Teaching the children all the virtues of equality
E B A
Boy tuck your shirt tail in, no room for minorities
E B A
He looks so peculiar through his specs cause he still can't see
E
Is he kidding anyone but me? Is it clear to anyone but me?
[Verse]
E
Mr. Johnny raises his brow as the sun goes down
B A
Through this strange cacophony he hears the trumpet sound
E
And then he smiles as his feet leave the ground
[Chorus]
E B A
Screaming "love thy neighbor" as he laughs at midgets on tv
E B A
thumbing the cross around his neck, he's trying sobriety
E B A
looks so peculiar through his specs because he still can't see
E
Is he kidding anyone but me? Is it clear to anyone but me?
