[D] [A] [G]
[D]
[A] [G]
[D]
What's the plan?
It's called trying to be [A] a man.
I will call you down just before
rain took us all away to [D] New Orleans.
I pull my heart out of my dirty red [Bm] bandana.
I was blowing [D] sad while Bobby [G] sang blues.
But now the windshield wipers
slapping [D] time and Bobby clapping
hands [A] we finally sang off every
song [D] that drive moved.
[G] Freedom's just another [D] word for
nothing left to lose.
[A] Nothing ain't worth nothing but [D] it's free.
[G] Feeling good was easy, [D] Lord, when
Bobby sang the [A] blues.
Feeling good was good enough for me.
Good enough for me, [D] Bobby McGee.
From the coal mines of Kentucky
to the California sun.
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.
[A] Standing right beside me, Lord,
everything I'd done.
Every night she kept [D] me from the cold.
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord,
I let it slip away.
Looking for the home I hoped [G] to find.
And I'd trade all my [D] tomorrows for
one single yesterday.
[A] Holding Bobby, Bobby, [D] there's the mind.
[G] Freedom's just another [D] word for
nothing left to lose.
[A] Nothing ain't worth [D] nothing but it's free.
[G] Feeling good was easy, Lord, [D] when
Bobby sang the blues.
[A] Buddy, that was good enough for me.
Good enough for me, Bobby [D] McGee.
