[Bb] La la la la la, la la la la la
Lala la la, me and Bobby [F]
McGee
La la la la la, la la la la la
Lala la la me and [Bb] Bobby McGee
Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Headin' for the train
Feeling nearly faded [F] as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it ran
Took us all the way to [Bb] New Orleans
I pulled my old harp out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowing fat while Bobby [Eb] sang the blues
With those windshield wipers left in [Bb] time
I was holding Bobby's hand in [F] mine
We'd sing every song that [Bb] driver knew
[Eb] Freedom's just an [Bb] oar for nothing left to lose
[F] Nothing ain't worth nothing [Bb] but it's free
[Eb] [Bb]
Bobby sang the blues
[F] Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and [Bb] Bobby McGee
La la la
La la la me and [F] Bobby McGee
La la la
La la la me and [Bb] Bobby McGee
[B] I'm from the south of Kentucky, of the California sun.
I'll be sharing the secrets [Gb] of my soul.
Standing right beside me, Lord, through everything I've done.
Every night, you've kept me [B] from the cold.
Since somewhere near the leanest loin, I let him slip away.
Searching for a home I [E] hope he'll find.
And I'd give all my love [B] for a single yesterday.
[Gb] Holding Bobby's body [B] close to mine.
[E] Freedom's just a [B] word for nothing left to lose.
[Gb] Nothing ain't worth nothing [B] but it's free.
[E] [B]
Sing the blues.
[Gb] Feeling good was good enough for me.
Good enough for me and [B] Bobby McGee.
