There's talk on the street, it sounds so familiar;
A         B                          E             E
great expectations, ev'rybody's watchin' you.
E           E                  F#m  B   F#m7 B
People you meet they all seem to know you,
A          B                              E             Absus4 Ab7
even your old friends treat you like you're somethin' new.

Johnny come lately,
C#m            F#
the new kid in town.

Ev'rybody loves you,

so don't let them down.

E               E               F#m     B    F#m B
You look in her eyes, the music begins to play,
A         B                   E    E
hopeless romantics, here we go again.
E            E                            F#m   B   F#m7 B
But after a while you're lookin' the other way,
A       B                     E    Absus4 Ab7
it's those restless hearts that never mend.

Johnny come lately,

when you're not around?

B7               B7                  E        E
There's so many things you should have told her,
B7              B7                       C#m
but night after night you're willing to hold her,

just hold her, tears on your shoulder.

There's talk on the street, it's there to remind you.

Doesn't really matter which side you're on.
G               G                         Am7  D   D7
You're walkin' away and they're talkin' behind you,
C                    D                  G    B7
they will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along.

Am7                B7                      E     Abm7  A
Now he's holdin' her and you're still around.

Ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout the new kid in town.
