Start Jamming...
If it sounds country, man, that's what it [C#m] is.
It's a country [A] song.
[F#m] Yeah, okay.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
Busted flat and battened rouge
Headin' for the trains
Feelin' nearly faded as [E] my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
Just before it rained
Took us all away to New [A] Orleans
I took my heart phone out of my dirty red
Bandana and was blowin' sad while Bobby sang [D] the blues
With them windshiew wipers
Slappin' time [A] and Bobby clapping hands
We finally [E] sang a velvet song that [A] driver knew
[B] [D]
Freedom's just another word [A] for nothing left to lose
[E] Nothing ain't worth nothin', [A] but it's free
[D] Feelin' good was easy, Lord, [A] when Bobby sang the blues
[E]
Feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [A] McGee
[B]
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of [F#] my soul
Standing right beside me, Lord
Everything I've done
Every [F#] night she kept me from the [B] cold
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away
Looking for the home I hope [E] she'll find
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for [B] a single yesterday
[F#] Holding Bobby's body next [B] to mine
[D] [E]
Freedom's just another word [B] for nothing left to lose
[F#] Nothing left is all she left [B] for me
[D] [E] Feelin' good was easy, Lord, [B] when Bobby sang the blues
[F#] Buddy, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [B] McGee
Good enough for me and Bobby [F#] McGee
Good enough for me and [B] Bobby McGee
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
[F#]
