[G] From Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, welcome to the American [C] Music Shop with special guest Lori Morgan and
singer-songwriter Chris Christopherson
Here's Chris Christopherson
[N]
Bus [C]
[G]
[C] that flattened that roof
heading for the train
Feeling nearly faded out of [G] my jeans
Bobby bummed a diesel down before [C] rain [G] took us all away to [C] New Orleans
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red pants
I was blowing sad while Bobby sang [F] the blues
With them windshield wipers slapping [C] time and Bobby clapping hands
We [G] finally sang up every song that we could
I'm not [C] driving loose
[F] Freedom's just another [C] word for all that's to lose
[G] Nothing ain't worth nothing but [C] a crease
[F] Feeling good was easy Lord [C] when Bobby sang the blues
[G] But it wasn't good enough for me
[C] [G] Good enough for me [Em] and Bobby [C] And Bobby
[G]
[C]
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby said the secret [G] of my soul
Standing right beside [G] me Lord
And everything I've done
Every night kept me from [C] the cold
But somewhere in this arena
Lord I've been sent away
Looking for the home I hope to [F] find
I pray all of my tomorrows
For [C] the single yesterday
[G] Holding Bobby's body next [C] to mine
[F] Freedom's just another word [C] for all that's to lose
[F#] Nothing [G] ain't worth nothing but a [C] crease
[F] Feeling good was easy Lord [C] when Bobby sang the blues
[G] But it wasn't good enough for me
Good enough for me and [C] Bobby And Bobby And Bobby
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey Oh, Bobby
[G] La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
[C] Bobby
Thank [N]
you
