[Verse 1]
AmCCadd9C
Johnny was bad, even as a child everybody could tell
AmCCadd9C
Everyone said, "If you don't get straight, you'll surely go to Hell!"
[Pre-Chorus]
FC
But Johnny didn't care
F
He was an outlaw by the time that he was ten years old
G
He didn't wanna do what he was told
AmG
Just a prankster
AmA juvenile gangster
FC
His teachers didn't understand, they kicked him out of school
F
At a tender early age just because
G
He didn't want to learn things
AmG
Had other interests
Am
He liked to burn things!

[Pre-Chorus]
FC
The lady down the block
F
She had a radio that Johnny wanted, oh, so bad
G
So he took it the first chance he had
AmG
And then he shot her in the leg
Am
But this is what she said
[Chorus]
AmF
(He's only a lad) You really can't blame him
AmF
(Only a lad) Society made him
AmFG
(Only a lad) He's our responsibility
C
Oh, oh, whoa whoa
AmF
(Only a lad) He really couldn't help it
AmF
(Only a lad) He didn't want to do it
AmFG
(Only a lad) He's underprivileged and abused
C
Perhaps a little bit confused
GCAm

[Verse 2]
AmCCadd9C
His parents gave up, they couldn't influence his attitude
AmCCadd9C
Nobody could help, the little man had no gratitude
[Pre-Chorus]
FC
And when he stole the car
F
Nobody dreamed that he would try to take it so far
G
He didn't mean to hit the poor man
AmG
Who had to go and die
Am
It made the judge cry
[Chorus]
AmF
(Only a lad) He really couldn't help it
AmF
(Only a lad) He didn't want to do it
AmFG
(Only a lad) He's underprivileged and abused
C
Perhaps a little bit confused
GC
Oh, oh, oh, oh whoa whoa
[Bridge]
Am
It's not his fault that he can't behave
Am
Society's made him go astray
Am
Perhaps if we're nice, he'll go away
FCFC
Perhaps he'll go away, he'll go away-ay
[Chorus]
AmF
(Only a lad) You really can't blame him
AmF
(Only a lad) Society made him
AmFGC
(Only a lad) Is he our responsibility?
[Outro Chorus]
AmF
Hey there, Johnny, you really don't fool me
AmF
You get away with murder and you think it's funny
AmF
You don't give a damn if we live or if we die
GC
Oh, oh, oh, oh whoa whoa whoa
GCBBb
Hey there, Johnny Boy... I hope you fry!
