Oh, yeah, sure, there's the Beacon Theatre, but still
[G] Other than that
[F#] Did the Beatles perform at the Beacon Theatre?
No, I don't think [N] so.
They tried to get them.
Ha!
They said no.
I don't think so.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's a great pleasure to welcome Joan Baez and Chris Christopherson.
[G]
Busted Latin button
Waiting for a train
Feeling near as fate [D] as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
Just before it rained
Drove us all the way to [G] New Orleans
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
Blowing south while Bobby sang [C] the blues
When she wiped the slapping [G] time
Bobby clapping hands
[D] Finally sang a very song [G] that drive her
[C] Freedom's just another word [G] for
Nothing left to lose
[D] Nothing ain't worth nothing, [G] but it's free
[C] Feeling good was easy, [G] Lord
When Bobby sang the blues
[D] Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me [G] and Bobby McGee
[A] From the coal mines of Kentucky
To the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of [E] my soul
Standing there beside me, Lord
Everything I done
Every night she kept me from [A] the cold
When I need a soliloquist, Lord, I let her slip away
Looking for the home I hope [D] she'll find
[Am] I trade all my [A]
tomorrows for one single yesterday
[E] Oh, Bobby's body clings [A] to mine
[D] Freedom's just another word [A] for
Nothing left to lose
[E] Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's [A] free
Feeling [D] good was [A] easy, Lord
When Bobby sang the blues
[E] Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [A] McGee
La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, me and [E] Bobby McGee
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la [A] Bobby McGee
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Bobby [E] McGee
[A] Bobby McGee.
