#1.

F#                              A#

So, he told you that you're the dream, that he's

     C#7

been searching for?

       F#                  A#              C#7

And he told you he's never met anyone like you

  

before.

          F#               F#7

And I can hear him telling you your lips taste

B                G#

just like cherry wine.

           F#                   B

But did he tell you that's he's known as Johnny

Did he tell you that your heart would soon become

                       B                  F#

another trinket on his bracelet of broken hearts?

F#                       B                 F#

Did he tell you that the morning sun would find 

             B                 F#

you patching up your shattered pride and searching

B               F#

for the missing parts?

F#                                           C#7

Did he tell you that the special love you're saving

                  B                  G#

will disappear in flames shaped like mine?

       F#                 B               F#

Did he tell you that he's known as Johnny One Time?

F#                        A#              B           C#7         

So, he told you that he'd never lead your heart astray.

       F#                 A#          B             C#7

And he told you that he'd love you forever and a day.

          F#               F#7             B

And I can hear him telling you that he's a shy and 

        G#

bashful kind.

But did he tell you that he's known as Johnny One Time?
