Me And Bobby Mcgee

Janis Joplin

Text File

G Busted flat in Baton Rouge waitin' for a train D Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans. D Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained D7 G-C-G Rode us all the way to New Orleans. G I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna G7 C I was playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues. C G Windshield wipers slappin' time, I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine D D7 We sang every song that driver knew. C G Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose, D D7 G-G7 Nothin' don't mean nothin' if it ain't free. C G Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues. D -D7 Feelin' good was good enough for me, G Good enough for me and Bobby McGee. G From the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun, D Bobby shared the secrets of my soul. D Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done, D7 G-C-G Hey, Bobby's body kept me from the cold. G One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away, G7 C He's lookin' for that home and I hope he finds it. C G But I'd trade all my tomorrows for one single yesterday, D D7 To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine. C G Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose, D D7 G And nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it's free. C G And feelin' good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues, D -D7 And feelin' good was good enough for me G Oh, good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
