[G] [C] [G]
Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Waitin' for a train
And I feel the news faded as [D] my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
Just before it rained
And rode us all the [G] way to New Orleans
I pulled my harpoon
Out of my dirty red bandana
I was playin' soft while Bobby sang [C] the blues
When she walked through the sleeping [G] town
I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine
[D] We sang every song that Javi knew
[C]
Freedom's just another [G] word for
Nothing left to lose
[D] Nothing, I mean nothing, honey, [G] if it ain't freedom
Yeah, [C] feelin' good was easy [G] love
When he sang the blues
[D] You know feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my [G] Bobby
From [A] the Kentucky coal mine
To the California sun
[A] Hey, Bobby shared the secrets of [E] my soul
[A] [E]
Through all kinds of weather
Through everything we've done
[A] Your Bobby baby [E] kept me [A] from the cold
One day I'm near Selena's lawn
I let him slip away
He's lookin' for that home
[D] And I hope he finds it
When I train all of my girls
For [A] one single yesterday
[E] To be holdin' Bobby's body next to [D] mine
Freedom's just another word [A] for
Nothing left to lose
[E] Nothing, that's all that [A] Bobby left me
[F#m] [D] But feelin' good was easy [A] love
When he sang the blues
[E] Hey, feelin' good was good enough for me
[A] [E] Good enough for me and my Bobby
