[C]
Busted flat and batting rooge and heading for the trains
Feeling nearly faded [G] as my jeans
Bobby thumbed the diesel down just before it rained
Took us nearly all the way to [C] New Orleans
I took my hot burn out of my dirty red bandana
I was playing sad while Bobby sang the [F] blues
Well then when she was slapping [C] time and Bobby clapping hands
We [G] finally sang every song that [C] driver knew
[F]
Freedom just another [C] word for nothing left to [G] lose
Nothing ain't worth nothing [C] but it's free
[F]
Feeling good was easy, [C] Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
[G]
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me [C] and Bobby McGee
[D]
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets [A] of my soul
Standing right beside me, Lord, do everything I done
Every night she'd [E] keep me [D] from the cold
Somewhere near Salinas, Lord, Bobby slipped away
Looking for the home I [G] hope she'll find
I'd trade all of my tomorrows [D] for just one yesterday
[A]
Holding Bobby's body [D] close to mine
[G]
Freedom just another [D] word for nothing left to lose
[A]
Nothing ain't worth nothing [D] but it's free
