F                      Bb      F
My Johnny’s gone, what shall I do
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo
       Dm          Bb      F
And if he says so, I’ll go too
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo


[Chorus]
  G                      Bb
Hilo-a Hilo, my Johnny’s gone
            F
And I’ll go too
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo


[Verse 2]
                    Bb     F
My Johnny’s sailed away to sea
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo
            Dm          Bb     F
A mermaid’s lover he’ll surely be
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo


[Chorus]
  G                      Bb
Hilo-a Hilo, my Johnny’s gone
            F
And I’ll go too
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo


[Verse 3]
                        Bb           F
My Johnny’s sailed from off of these shores
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo
           Dm     Bb        F
I’ll never see my Johnny no more
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo


[Chorus]
  G                      Bb
Hilo-a Hilo, my Johnny’s gone
            F
And I’ll go too
                    C F
My Johnny’s gone to Hilo
