Earlier this afternoon we were having a little sound check together
and this next song we're going to do, obviously written by Chris,
but this other lady had done a pretty famous version of it
and he was just noting as I was singing, he was going,
like, you don't sing it like Janis, I said, man,
I got the sheet music when I was eight years old
and I proved to these guys this afternoon that it is in the key of C.
[C]
[G]
[C]
Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Heading for the train
Feeling nearly faded [G] as my jeans
Bobby thawed a diesel down
Just before rain
Took us all the way to [C] New Orleans
Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
I was blown sad while Bobby [F] sang the blues
With them windshield wipers slapping [C] time in
Bobby clapping hands we [G] finally sang of
Every song that [C] driven you
[F] Freedom's just another word [C] for
Nothing left to lose
[G] Nothing ain't worth nothing [C] but it's free
[F] Feeling good was the easy [C] lord
Well, Bobby sang the blues
[G] But it was good enough for me
Good enough for me and [C] Bobby McGee
From
[G]
[C]
the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of [G] my soul
Standing right beside me, Lord, through everything I'd done
Every night she kept [C] me from the cold
And somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away
Looking for the home I [F] hoped she'll find
And I'd trade all my tomorrows [C] for a single yesterday
[G] Holding Bobby's body [C] next to mine
[F] Freedom's just another [C] word for
Nothing left to lose
[G] Nothing ain't worth nothing [C] but it's free
Feeling [F] good was the easy [C] lord
Well, Bobby sang the blues
[G] But it was good enough for me
Good enough for [C] me and Bobby McGee
La la la, la la la la
La la la, me [G] and Bobby McGee
La la la, la la la la
Freedom [C] for Bobby McGee
La la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la la
La la la, me and [G] Bobby McGee
La la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la la
Me and Bobby [C] McGee
[G]
[C] [Gm] [F]
Freedom's just another [C] word for
Nothing left to lose
[G]
Nothing, ain't worth nothing, [C] let it be
[F] Feeling good was easy, [C] Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
[G] Buddy, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me
