INTRO: Asus2 E Asus2

Asus2

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

Asus2

Took us all the way to New Orleans

I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana

A D

I was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues

A A-Asus2

With them windshield wipers slappin time and Bobby clappin' hands we finally

E Asus2 A

Sang up every song that driver knew

CHORUS:

D A

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose

Asus2-E Asus2 A

Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free

D A

Feelin' good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues

Asus2-E Asus2

Feelin' good was good enough for me, good enough for me and Bobby McGee

INTRO

Asus2

From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun

E

Bobby shared the secrets of my soul

Standin' right beside me Lord thru everything I done

Asus2

Every night she kept me from the cold

Then somewhere Salinas Lord I let her slip away

A D

Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find

And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a

A

Single yesterday

Asus2-E Asus2 A

Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

CHORUS

Asus2 E

La la la la la la la la me and Bobby McGee yeah

Asus2

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la me and Bobby McGee

FADE (doin' the "la la la" part as Janis Joplin's "Bobby-Bobby-Bobby McGee rap)
