Me And Bobby McGee Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Busted flat in Baton Rouge,
waitin' for a train
And I's feelin' near as faded as [D]my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down,
just before it rained
It rode us all the way to New Or[G]leans[C][G]
I [G]pulled my harpoon out of my
dirty red bandanna
I was playin' soft while
Bobby sang the [C]blues, yeah
Windshield wipers slappin' time,
I [G]was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine
[D]We sang every song that driver knew

[Chorus 1]
[C]Freedom's just another word for
[G]nothin' left to lose
[D]Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't [G]free,
no no
And, [C]feelin' good was easy, Lord,
[G]when he sang the blues
You know, [D]feelin' good
was good enough for me
Good enough for me
and my Bobby Mc[G]Gee[A]

[Verse 2]
From the [A]Kentucky coal mine
to the California sun
There Bobby shared the secrets of my [E]soul
Through all kinds of weather,
through everything we done
Yeah, Bobby baby kept me from the [A]cold
One day up near Salinas, Lord,
I let him slip away
He's lookin' for that home,
and I hope he [D]finds it
But, I'd trade all of my tomorrows,
for a [A]single yesterday
To be [E]holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

[Chorus 2]
[D]Freedom's just another another word for
[A]nothin' left to lose
[E]Nothin', that's all that Bobby [A]left me, yeah
But, [D]feelin' good was easy,
[A]Lord, when he sang the blues
Hey, [E]feelin' good was
good enough for me mm-hmm
[E]Good enough for me and my Bobby Mc[A]Gee

[Verse 3]

[Bridge 1]
Well, I [A]call him my lover, call him my man
I said, I call him my lover
did the best I can, c'mon
Hey now, Bobby now
Hey now, Bobby Mc[E]Gee yeah
La da, [E]la da, la da...
