Me And Bobby McGee Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A][A]
[A]Busted flat in Baton Rouge
headin' for the trains
Feelin' nearly faded as my [E]jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
just before it rained
Took us all the way to New Or[A]leans
I took my harpoon out of
my dirty red bandanna
And was blowin' sad
while Bobby sang the [D]blues
With them windshield wipers slappin' time and
[A]Bobby clappin' hands
we finally [E]sang up every song
That driver [A]knew

[Chorus 1]
[D]Freedom's just another word for
[A]nothin' left to lose
[E]Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's fre[A]e
[D]Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when
[A]Bobby sang the blues
[E]Feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby Mc[A]Gee

[Verse 2]
[B][B]
From the [B]coalmines of Kentucky
to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my [F#]soul
Standin' right beside me, Lord
through everythin' I done
Every night she kept me from the [B]cold
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord
I let her slip away
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll [E]find
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a
[B]single yesterday
[F#]Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine[B]

[Chorus 2]
[E]Freedom's just another word for
[B]nothin' left to lose
[F#]Nothin' left is all she left for me[B]
[E]Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when
[B]Bobby sang the blues
[F#]And buddy, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby Mc[B]Gee

[Outro 1]
[B]La,la,la... Me and Bobby McGee[F#]
La,la,la... Me and Bobby Mc[B]Gee
[Repeat and fade]
