Johnny Go Riding Chords - Damien Jurado

Dsus2 G Johnny lets go out riding to a place outside of town Dsus2 G I go there every Sunday to watch the sun go down Dsus2 G There's plenty of girls who know you, they've been asking where you've been A G Johnny don't dissapoint them, they'd all like to see you again Dsus2 G Willy I don't think im ready to leave this house of mine Dsus2 G You go out and tell them I'm not the social kind Dsus2 G Some men they are lovers and others the fighting type A G And me I'm in the middle of choosing which one I'd like..... to be Dsus2 G Judy she's out catching rides in passing cars Dsus2 G The memories of me and her have burned out like the stars Dsus2 G Me I'm not dissapointed knowing that she's free A G Somewhere down the line I knew she'd one day up and leave Dsus2 G Willy forget your troubles and lay back on the grass Dsus2 G There's no need to get nostalgic thinking about the past Dsus2 G What's gone is gone, what's here is now, she's standing by your fence A G She's wearing a beautiful party dress and wanting you to dance..... hey hey. ----- But the real flavour of the song is in all the little runs and hammer-ons, a lot of the time the first strum of the Dsus2 hammers on as below:

{tab: e|--0----|}

{tab: B|--3----|}

{tab: G|--0h2--|}

{tab: D|--0----|}

{tab: A|-------|}

{tab: E|-------|}

and at the end of the G (particularly in the instrumental sections) there's often a run down on the D string something like this:

{tab: e|-----------------|}

{tab: B|-----------------|}

{tab: G|-----------------|}

{tab: D|--4-4-4-4-2-0-0--|}

{tab: A|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|}
