Orig.: A
C
Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Headin' for the train
G7
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
Just before it rained
C
Took us all away to New Orleans
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowin' sad
C7 F
While Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield wipers slappin' time
C
And Bobby clappin' hands
G7 C C7
We finally sang up every song that driver knew
F C
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
G7 C C7
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
F
Feelin' good was easy, Lord,
C
When Bobby sang the blues
G7
Feelin' good was good enough for me
C D
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
D
From the coalmines of Kentucky
To the California sun
A7
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standin' right beside me Lord
Through everything I done
D
Every night she kept me from the cold
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord
I let her slip away
D7 G
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows
D
For one single yesterday
A7 D D7
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
G D
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
A7 D D7
Nothin' left is all she left for me
G
Feelin good was easy, Lord
D
When Bobby sang the blues
A7
Buddy, that was good enough for me
D
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
