Me And Bobby Mcgee

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

Bobby thumbed a diesel down,

Just before it rained
                           A
Took us all the way to New Orleans
A
I took my harpoon out of my dirty 
red bandanna
                          D
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang
 the blues

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

[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
D                             
Freedom's just another word for 
  A
nothin' left to lose
E                                 
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but 
   A
it's free
D                             
Feeling good was easy Lord when 
  A
Bobby sang the blues
E
Feeling good was good enough for me
                             A
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

[Verse]
A
From the coal mines of Kentucky to 
the California sun
                                E
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
  A
 cold
A
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I 
let her slip away
                 A                 
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll 
 D
find

And I'd trade all of my tomorrows
      A
For a single yesterday
E                             A
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

[Chorus]
D                             
Freedom's just another word for 
  A
nothin' left to lose
E                                 
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but 
   A
it's free
D                             
Feeling good was easy Lord when 
  A
Bobby sang the blues
E
Feeling good was good enough for me
                             A
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
