[Verse 1]
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
Hey, if I could I'd sit you down buy you a drink and ask you how
F
You got a cowboy ridin' to slow on down and walk the line and
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
I'd wanna hear it from the start, how many times did he break your heart?
F
From what I'm readin', why didn't you leave him
[Chorus]
C Cmaj7
When he came home late on booze and pills
C7sus2 F
Lyin' through that perfume smell comin' off his shirt?
F
What made you wanna make it work?
C Cmaj7 C7sus2
Did you always know he'd come around, change his ways and settle down?
F
Did your friends call you crazy too?
F C Cmaj7 C7sus2 F
It'd sure help if I knew, hey June, why Johnny?
[Verse 2]
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
Did you know deep down inside your bones he'd be yours and yours alone?
F
Or were you just hoping? And how did you keep hoping?
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
I think I've got a Johnny of my own, but will he change? Hell if I know
F
Yes, I'm just hoping, but how do I keep hoping
[Chorus]
C Cmaj7
When he came home late on booze and pills
C7sus2 F
Lyin' through that perfume smell comin' off his shirt?
F
What made you wanna make it work?
C Cmaj7 C7sus2
Did you always know he'd come around, change his ways and settle down?
F
Did your friends call you crazy too?
F C Cmaj7 C7sus2 F
It'd sure help if I knew, hey June, why Johnny?
[Bridge]
C Cmaj7
Why Johnny? And how June
C7sus2 F
Did you make him realize it was always you?
F
Did you ever wanna find somebody new?
[Chorus]
C Cmaj7
When he came home late on booze and pills
C7sus2 F
Lyin' through that perfume smell comin' off his shirt?
F
What made you wanna make it work?
C Cmaj7 C7sus2
Did you always know he'd come around, change his ways and settle down?
F
Did your friends call you crazy too? Bet you could've had anyone you wanted to
C Cmaj7 C7sus2 F
So, hey, June, why Johnny?
[Outro]
C
Why Johnny? How, June?
