Me And Bobby McGee

C
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the train G7
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans

Bobby thumbed a diesel down,

Just before it rained C
Took us all the way to New Orleans

C
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna C7 F
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues

With those windshield wipers slappin' time C
And Bobby clappin' hands G7 C
We finally sang up every song that driver knew


1st Chorus:
F C
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
G7 C
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
F C
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
G7
Feeling good was good enough for me C
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

C
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun G7
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standin' right beside me Lord
Through everything I've done
And every night she kept me from the cold

Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows
For a single yesterday
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

2nd Chorus:
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' left is all she left for me
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
And buddy that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
