From his army confessions of his military days

You still carry the shrapnel you're shell-shocked and dazed  
       B      A                 G6 
Dear Jmohnny have you lost your way 
          C                  Dm       A        Bb   
Or like denim and leather are you fademd and frayed  

Institute lackies with hot bourbon breath 
White coats and needles Johnny  
like to scare you to death 
Dear Johnny do you feel your best 
When you're  
strung out at night on your morphine and meth  
FJackknife Johnny you're a floor moppin' Eflunkie  
EbTool of a Bbdagger's Gdrawn worldE  
FJackknife Johnny them old vets gotta Ehate you  
For bringing home that AV.EC. Bgirl  
EbJackknife Johnny Gwelcome to our Gbworld  
From the tone deaf hearing of the draft board game 
You were washing cars  
down in Dallas when the holocaust came 
Dear Johnny your excuse was lame  
Bb All your friends sleep in boxes while you sleep in chains
