Intro:  C  Em  Am  A7  (4 x )

  C            Em
I knew a man Bojangles
          Am          A7
And he'd dance for you
F             G   G7
 In worn out shoes
     C               Em
The silver hair, a  ragged shirt
     Am       A7
And baggy pants
F               G  G7
 The old soft shoe
F              G    E7         
 He'd jump so high,  jump so 
Am   A7
high

 Then he'd lightly touch down

He told me of the time he worked 
with
Minstrel shows travelling
Throughout the south
He spoke with tears of fifteen years
How his dog and he
They would travel about.
But his dog up and died
He up and died
And after twenty years he still 
grieved
He said "I dance now
At every chance in the Honky Tonks
For my drinks and tips
But most the time I spend
Behind these country bars
You see on I drinks a bit"
Then he shook his head
Oh lord when he shook his head
I could swear I heard someone say 
please

Am              G      Am
