I knew a man [Bm] Bojangles and he [A] danced with [G] you. _
From [D] worn out [A] shoes, _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
with [F#m] silver hair and a [Bm] ragged shirt [A] and baggy pants.
[G] _ _
Did the old soft [A] shoe, _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ jump so [F#m] high, _ _ jump [Bm] so _ [A] high.
_ _ _ [E] _
Then he lightly touched [A]
down. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] I met him in the [F#] cell in New [Bm]
Orleans.
[A] I was down, [G] _
_ _ _ down [A] and out.
_ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [F#m] He looked at me [Bm] to feed [A] the eyes of [G]
age.
_ [D] Spoke [A] right out, _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ talked of [F#m] his life, _ [F#] _ _ _
[B] talked of his [A] life. _ _
[E] _ _ With a laugh, slapped his [A] leg and step. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
[D] He said the name [A] Bojangles.
[Bm] He danced a [A] little. _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ Across [A] the cell, _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [F#m] he grabbed his pants, [Bm] prepared his stance and he [Am] jumped up [G] high.
_ He clicked [A] his heels. _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ They let him go [F#m] and laughed.
[F#] _ _ _
[B] They let him go and [A] laughed. _
[E] _ _ He shook back his clothes [A] all around. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ He said, Mr. _
[A] _ Bojangles. _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ They called me Mr.
[A] _ _ Bojangles. _ _
[Bm] _ _ I did some Mr.
[A] _
_ _ Bojangles. _
If I [D] can dance.

_ _ [F#m] Throughout [A] the South, _ _ _
[D] _ _ [C#] he spoke of [Bm] tears of 15 [Am] years.
[G] How a dog and him, they traveled [A] _ about. _ _ _
[G] _ _ Till his dog up [F#] and died. _ _ _
[B] He up and died.
[D] _ _
[E] _ Twenty years, he [A] still greaves. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
[D] He said I dance at [F#m] every chance [Bm] and _ _ [A] honkytonk. _
[G] _ _ He drinks [A]
and kisses. _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F#] Most of the time, [B] I spend behind [A] these county [G] bars.
I drink [A]
some beer. _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ Shook [F#m] his head.
_ [F#] _
As he shook his [A] head, _ _
[E] _ I heard someone ask [A] him, please. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ Hey Mr. _
[A] _ _ Bojangles, _ _
