[Intro]
N.C.
(One two one two three four)
C
[Verse 1]
C
Well busted flat in Baton Rouge a headin' for the trains
G7
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
G7
Ol' Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
C
Lord took us all the way to New Orleans
C
Pulled my ol' har'poon out of my dirty red bandana
C7 F
Blowed it low while Bobby sang the blues
F7
With them windshield whipers slappin' time
C
And Bobby clappin' hands with mine
G7 C7
We finally sang up ever song that driver knew
[Chorus]
F C7
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
G7 C7
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
F7 C
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
G7 C D7
Lord that was good enough for me yeah good enough for me and Bobby McGee
[Verse 2]
D7
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
A7
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
A7
She was standin' right beside me Lord through everything I done
D7
And every night she kept me from the cold
D7
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away
G7
Looking for the home I hope she'll find
D
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows for a single yesterday
A7 D
Holding her body close to mine
[Chorus]
G D
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
A7 D
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
G D
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
A7 D
But if that was good enough for me yeah good enough for me and Bobby McGee
[Outro]
D A7 D
Yeah la la la la...
