Me And Bobbie McGee chords
Start Jamming...
[C#]
Busted flat and battened rooge, heading for the trains, feeling nearly faded [G#] as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed the diesel down just before it rained, took us all the way to [C#] New Orleans.
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana and 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 [C#] driver knew.
[F#] Freedom's just another word for [C#] nothing left to lose, [G#] nothing ain't worth nothing [C#] but it's free.
[F#] Feeling good was easy Lord when [C#] Bobby sang the blues, [G#] feeling good was good enough for me,
good enough for me and Bobby [C#]
McGee.
[D] From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of [A] my soul, standing right beside me Lord grew everything I'd done
and every night she kept me [D] from the cold.
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away,
looking for the home I hope she'll [G] find.
I trade all of my tomorrows for [D] a single yesterday,
[A] holding Bobby's body next [D] to mine.
[G] Freedom's just another word [D] for nothing left to lose,
[A] nothing left is all she [D] left for me.
[G] I was feeling good was easy [D] Lord when Bobby sang the blues,
[A] but that was good enough for me, good enough for me and [D] Bobby McGee.
