[Ab]
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train, feeling near as faded as [Eb] my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before rain, towed us all the [Cm] way to [Ab] New Orleans.
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red Vans, I was playing soft while Bobby [Db] sang the blues.
Windchill wipers laughing time, [Ab] I was holding Bobby's hand in mine, [Eb] we sang every song that driver knew.
[Cm] [Db]
Freedom's just another word, [Ab] [Eb]
nothing ain't worth nothing [Ab] but it's free.
[Db] Feeling good was easy, Lord, [Ab] when [Eb] blues, feeling good was good enough for me, good enough for me and [Ab] Bobby McGee.
[Bb]
From the coal mine of Kentucky to the California sun, Bobby shared the secrets [F] of my soul.
Through all kinds of weather, everything we done, every night he kept me [Bb] from the cold.
Somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away, looking for that home I [Eb] hardly find.
I'd trade all my heart [Bb] for a single yesterday, [F]
holding Bobby's body next to mine.
[Eb]
Freedom's just another [Bb] word for nothing left to [F] lose, nothing ain't worth nothing but [Bb] it's free.
[Eb]
Feeling good [Bb] was easy, Lord, when blues, [F]
feeling good was good enough for me, good enough for me and [Bb] Bobby McGee.
