[G] [C] [G]
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting 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 slayin' soft while Bobby sang [C] the blues
Windshield wipers slapping [G] time, I was holding Bobby's tandem mat
[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] feeling good was easy love [G] when he sang the blues
[D] You know, feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my [G] Bobby
[A] From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sun
[A] Yeah, Bobby shared the secrets of [E] my soul
[A] [E]
Through all kinds of weather, through everything we've done
Your Bobby baby kept me [A] from the cold
One day I'm near Selena's slow home, I let him slip away
He's looking for that home and [D] I hope he finds it
But I trained all of my canoes for [A] one single yesterday
[E] To be holding 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
[D] But feeling good was easy [A] love when he sang the blues
[E] Feeling good was good enough for me
[A] [E] Good enough for me and my Bobby
