Me and Bobby McGee

(G C G C G C G C)

[intro]

G               G          G    
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, 
            G
waitin' for a train
         G                G        
When I's feelin' near as faded as 
D7      D7
my jeans
D7               D7        D7   
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just
            D7
 before it rained
     D7              D7        
And rode us all the way into New 
    G - C    G
Orleans

  G             G             G  
I pulled my harpoon out of my 
           G
dirty red bandana
    G                   G7        
I's playin' soft while Bobby sang 
      C    C
the blues
C                   C            
Windshield wipers slappin' time, 
     G                G
I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine
D7             D7               
We sang every song that driver 
D7   D7
knew

C                C             G
Freedom's just another word for 
                 G
nothin' left to lose
D7                 D7            
Nothin', it ain't nothin' honey, 
              G
if it ain't free
    C                C            
And feelin' good was easy, lord, 
  G                 G
oh, when he sang the blues
         D7               D7 
You know feelin' good was good 
              D7  D7
enough for me
D7                            
Good enough for me and my Bobby 
     G   C-G    A    A
McGee

>From the Kentucky coal mines to 
  A          A
the California sun
     A                 A          
Yeah Bobby shared the secrets of 
E7      E7
my soul
        E7            E7    
Through all kinds of weather, 
          E7             E7
through everything we done
     E7         E7               
Yeah Bobby baby kept me from the 
A     A
cold

    A              A            A
One day up near Salinas, lo-ord, 
                 A
I let him slip away
     A                 A7      
He's lookin' for that home and I 
           D        D7
hope he finds it
         D               D        
Well I'd trade all my tomorrows 
      A            A
for one single yesterday
      E7               E7         
To be holdin' Bobby's body next to
  E7   E7
 mine

D                D             A
Freedom's just another word for 
                 A
nothin' left to lose
E7                   E7          
Nothin', and that's all that 
   A       A
Bobby left me
      D                D   
Well, feelin' good was easy, 
       A                     A
lo-o-ord, when he sang the blues
    E7               E7           
And feelin' good was good enough 
    E7  E7
for me
E7               E7          
Good enough for me and my Bobby
