Johnny Law Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

For the intro I use my pinky to slide on the e string and have

my hand ready to go to the E chord quickly. Pretty sure that's how

he does it. (Also if you kinda loosely strum it and hit the B string

on occasion, it's not a big deal...it actually sounds good).

Verse

EWell I was driving down the road just a Aminding my Eown when Johnny Law

pulled B7up from Ebehind

EHe walked up to my window and said, Aroll it Edown and let me F♯see what I can

Bfind

EI said, no way, what's Amine is Emine and I'd appreciate it if you'd B7leave me

Ebe

EHe said, I'll leave you be alright, in a Acell all Enight, I'll lock you up

and throw B7away the Ekey

He slapped them Acuffs on my wrist

And my Ehands clenched into fists

And I wished I could have punched him in the B7jaw

And knock out old Johnny ELaw

Chorus

(right here he does a walk up to A that goes like so)

Ohh Johnny ALaw

Johnny ELaw

He's the littlest man I ever B7saw

With his Ebadge and his gun, he'll just Ahassle Eeveryone

He'll get you on the B7run Johnny ELaw

(INTRO)

Verse

EHe took me down to the state house

And he Ahurled that book at Eme

And bein' in a cell is Alike being in Ehell for a F♯man who longs to be fBree

EI sat there and I wondered, just what Agave this man the Eright

ETo leave me to rot here on this Arickety Ecot, just aB7 staring at the ceiling

all Enight

And AI couldn't help but think of tEhe words of my dear departed Pa

He said, do the best you can, be a Agood maEn, but don't you never trust

B7Johnny ELaw

Chorus

(THE SAME WALK UP TO A)

Ohh JohnnyA Law

Johnny ELaw

He's the littlest man I ever B7saw

With his Ebadge and his gun, he'll just Ahassle Eeveryone

He'll get you on the B7run Johnny ELaw

Verse

EWithout any proof they couldn't Akeep me Ethere so they let me out B7in the

Emorning

EAnd that cop said, son, I don't know Awhat you Edone, but just F♯consider this a

little Bwarning

EI said, it must take a lot of nerve to Aprotect and Eto serve but I wonder

what it B7would be Elike

EIf you didn't have that badge or that gun or that unifoB7rm to hide Ebehind

And Aalthough I feel, that this whole deal, EI got, was pretty damn wrong

My conscience is clean, cause I'm Aa human Ebeing,

And you're just B7Johnny ELaw

Chorus

(THE SAME WALK UP TO A)

Ohh JohnnyA Law

Johnny ELaw

He's the littlest man I ever B7saw

With his Ebadge and his gun, he'll just Ahassle Eeveryone

He'll get you on the B7run Johnny ELaw

EWith his badge and his gun, he'll just Ahassle Eeveryone

You'll never get me on the rB7un Johnny ELaw

OUTRO IS SAME AS INTRO AS HE HUMS ALONG TO THE MELODY.

Alright that's it. That felt like it took forever. I can't imagine how

long its takes someone to tab out something like "Green Grass and High

Tides." Cheers.
