G
So he told you that you're the dream
D7
That he's been searching for
G
And he told you he's never met
D7
Someone like you before
G
And I can hear him telling you
C
Your lips taste just like cherry wine
G
But did he tell you
C G
That he's known as Johnny One Time
Did he tell you that your heart
D7
Would soon become another trinket
C G
On his bracelet of broken hearts
C
Did he tell you that the morning sun
G D7
Would find you patching up your shattered pride
G
And searching for the missing parts
Did he tell you that the special love you're saving
C
Will disappear in flames shaped like mine
G C
Did he tell you that he's known as
G
Johnny One Time
So he told you that he'd never
D7
Lead your heart astray
G
And he told you that he'd love you
D7
Forever and a day
G
And I can hear him telling you
C
That he's a shy and bashful kind
G
But did he tell you
C G
That he's known as Johnny One Time
