Johnny [Original] - Vickye Fisher

sorry I epically fucked up the chords in the second half xD

lyrics:

Johnny had a brand new car
And we used to drive around in it
Past all the places that we knew
Johnny had a tattoo
Of a girl with half her clothes on
I didn't like to ask who

Johnny didn't like my dad
Said he was too uptight
And needed to settle down a bit
Johnny did as he pleased
No matter who said what
And secretly I wished I was just like him

When I was seventeen

Johnny had a shotgun
He hid it in his sock drawer
Cause he'd used it once or twice
Johnny used to kiss me
Grab me in front of his friends
He used to call me his vice

When I was seventeen

Chorus:
I would have stayed with Johnny for the rest of my life
But he said he didn't want a wife
Guess he ran away to be beautiful someplace else
No matter how I felt
When I was seventeen

Johnny used to have a stash
Of powders and shiny pills
They made me dizzy when I tried
Johnny kept a bottle
Under the back seat of his car
Of every kind of alcohol you'd find

When I was seventeen

Chorus

I saw the blue lights flashing, flashing
Heard my dad yelling and saw him dashing
They took Johnny away, he left laughing
Like he didn't understand, I didn't understand

Chorus

Johnny made me think one day
When I was looking back on life
How close I came to slipping away
Johnny had his hands on my skin
My soul in his chest
But he didn't care, he was never gonna stay
Until I turned eighteen
Oh, when I was seventeen
