Johnny & Johnny – A HISTORY

Rewritten lyrics by Robert Andrews

SLOW BECAUSE OF THE RAPID CHORD CHANGES

FROM THE CIVIL WAR

And [Bm] now we’re going off to fight, [F#m] hurroo hurroo.
I’ll [Bm] fight the war with all my might, [D] hurroo [F#7] hurro.
A [D] gun in me hand, a [A] drop in me eye.
A [Bm] doleful damsel [F#7] I heard cry.
[Bm] I’ll [A] be [G] back [F#7] soon.
[Bm] Johnny I [F#7] hardly [Bm] knew ya

[Bm] Where are the eyes that looked so mild, [F#m] hurroo hurroo
[Bm] Where are the arms to hug your child, [D] hurroo [F#7] hurroo
You [D] have’n’t an arm, you [A] have’n’t a leg, hurroo hurroo
You’ll [Bm] have to be put-[F#7] out with the bowl to beg
I’m [Bm] happy [A] for to [G] see ya [F#7] home,
[Bm] Johnny I [F#7] hardly [Bm] knew ya

REWRITTEN IN THE 1900’S

[Verse 1]
When [Bm] Johnny comes marching home again.   [D] Hurrah! Hurrah!    We'll [Bm] give him a hearty welcome then    [D] Hurrah! [F#7] Hurrah! 
The [D] men will cheer and the [A] boys will shout.  The [Bm] ladies they will [F#7] all turn out.  And we'll [Bm] all [A] feel [G] gay [F#7] when [Bm] Johnny comes [F#7] marching [Bm] home

[OUTRO] We'll [Bm] all [A] feel [G] gay [F#7] when 
[Bm] Johnny comes [F#7] marching [Bm] home.
