Am                                  C
... I remember a girl called Johnny... the train came to town, boy she got on it
D                                         Dm                Dm7
Without looking back, without a word she said goodbye, well I never heard
Am
but the noise goes on, the noise, the jazz
C
And the truth is in somebody else's hands

And the house that a girl called johnny built is now-just-ash-es and sand
            C              D       Dm         Dm7
Ashes and sand, ashes and sand
