Intro -x2-: C  Dm  Am  F   G
 
Verse:
C
He stays home home for work this time
  Dm
He never really told his wife
   Am                           F           
He never really told a lie but this time he 
  G                  C        Dm
decides that it's alright.
    Am         F     G   
It's alright.
C                                Dm
No one really knows his mind and no one knows behind his eyes.
   Am
The man deserves a medal
          F           G             C            Dm
But he's never really won a prize before.
                     Am        F     G
He goes to lock the door.
 
Pre-Chorus:
F     Am    G
He is falling
     C        Em    G    F 
And though he knows it's not
     Am    G     Em        G
The world looks down and frowns.
 
Chorus:
C             Dm                 Am
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,
                  F                  G              C
Get up cause the world has left you lying on the ground.
                    Dm                       Am
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
              F           G                C      Dm
Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.
            Am  F G
We all need you now.
 
Interlude: C  Dm  Am  F   G
 
Verse:
C
Someone said where you going
Dm
Someone said to you goodbye
Am                                F            
They deflect the disrespect when they say that 
      G               C     Dm
they blame it on the times
                      Am         F      G
They blame it on the time.
C                               Dm
We all know you're qualified to fix a chair and love your wife
Am                                 F        
They all know you're qualified but they lie 
           G                C  Dm
when they blame it on the times.
                        Am      F      G
And we blame it on the times.
 
Pre-Chorus:
F     Am    G
He is falling
     C        Em    G    F 
And though he knows it's not
     Am    G     Em        G
The world looks down and frowns.
 
Chorus:
C             Dm                 Am
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,
                  F                  G              C
Get up cause the world has left you lying on the ground.
                    Dm                       Am
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
              F           G               Am      F
Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.
             C          G    Ab
We all need you now
 
 
Am           F                  C            G        Ab     
I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
    Am            F                 C             G       Ab     
And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
    Am            F                 C             G       Ab     
And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
 
Chorus -x2-:
C             Dm                 Am
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,
                  F                  G              C
Get up cause the world has left you lying on the ground.
                    Dm                       Am
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
              F           G                C
Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.
