Me And Bobby McGee chords by
The Drifters

N/A

Key: D major

Verse 1
D D 
 
Busted flat in Baton Rouge,
headed for the train
A A 
 
Feeling nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
just before it rained
D D 
 
Took us all the way to New Orleans
I took my harpoon out of
my dirty red bandana
And I was blowin' the sand
G G 
 
while Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield
wipers sloppin' times
D D 
 
And Bobby clapping hands,
A A 
 
we finally sang up every song
D D 
 
that driver knew
G G 
 
Freedom's just another word
D D 
 
for nothing left to lose
A A 
 
Nothing ain't worth nothing
D D 
 
but it's free
G G 
 
Feelin' good was easy, Lord,
D D 
 
when Bobby sang the blues
A A 
 
And feelin' good was
good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGree
D D 
 
E E 
 
From the coal mine of Kentucky
to the California sun
B B 
 
Bobby shared the secret of my soul
Standing right beside me Lord
Through everything I've done
And every night she kept
E E 
 
me from the cold
Then somewhere near St. Lena's Lord
I let her slip away
A A 
 
Looking for the home I hope she'll find
And I trade all of my tomorrows
E E 
 
For a single yesterday
B B 
 
E E 
 
Holdin' Bob his body next to mine
A A 
 
Freedom just another word
E E 
 
For nothin' left to lose
B B 
 
E E 
 
Nothin' left is all she left for me
A A 
 
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
E E 
 
but Bobby sang the blues
B B 
 
And buddy,
that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and
E E 
 
B B 
 
Bobby McGee
We find
For .helpdesigners you
