Chords
[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the trains,
Feelin' nearly faded as my Ejeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,
Took us all the way to New Orleans. A
Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues,
D With them windshield wipers slappin' time and
A Bobby clappin' hands we finally sangE up every song
That driver knew. A
[Chorus]
D Freedom's just another word forA nothin' left to lose,
E And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's Afree,
D Feelin' good was easy, Lord, whenA Bobby sang the blues,
E Feeling good was good enough for me,
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee. A
[Verse 2]
B From the coalBmines of Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my F#soul,
Standin' right beside me, Lord through everythin' I done,
Every night she kept me from the cold.
B Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away,
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll Efind,
Well I'd trade all my tomorrows for aB single yesterday,
F# Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine. B
[Chorus]
E Freedom's just another word forB nothin' left to lose,
F# Nothin' left was all she left to me,
B E Feelin' good was easy, Lord, whenB Bobby sang the blues,
F# Buddy, that was good enough for me.
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee. B
