The Late Great Johnny Ace (Original Acoustic Demo) - Paul Simon
I was reading a magazine

And thinking of a rock and roll song

The year was 1956
And I hadn't been playing that long

When a man came on the radio

And this is what he said

He said I hate to break it to his fans
But johnny ace is dead, yeah, yeah, yeah

Well, I really wasn't
Such a johnny ace fan
But I felt bad ali the same

So I sent away for his photograph
And I waited till it came

It came all the way from texas

With a sad and sim-ple face

And they signed it on the bottom
From the late great johnny ace, yeah, yeah, yeah

It was the year of the beatles
It was the year of the stones

It was nineteen sixtyfour

I was living in london
With the girl from the summer be-fore

It was the year of the beatles
It was the year of the stones

A year after j.f.k.

We were staying up all night
And giving the days away

And the music was flowing amazing
And blowing my way

On a cold december evening

I was walking through the christmas tide

When a stranger came up and asked me
If I'd heard john lennon had died

And the two of us went to this bar

And we stayed to close the place

And every song we played
Was for the late great johnny ace, yeah, yeah, yeah
