<intro>  solo guitar plays G

<verse 1>
G
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train, when I's
G                           D      (guitar fill)
Feelin' near as faded as my jeans
D                           D
Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained, it
D                               G  (guitar fill)(band enters)
Rode us all the way in to New Orleans,                        I
G
Pulled my harpoon, out of my dirty red bandanna, I was
G                                 C
Playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues
C                                G
Windshield wipers slappin' time I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine
D
We sang every song that driver knew


<chorus>
IV                               I
Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to lose
V                                            I
Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free, and
IV                           I
Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when she sang the blues, you know
V                                V
Feelin' good was good enough for me
V                                 I
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

Shift to A


<verse 2>           From the
A                         A
Kentucky coal mine to the California sun, there
A                              E
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul, through
E                             E
All kinds of weather, through everything we done
E                                 A
Yeah, Bobby baby kept me from the cold,       one
A                            A
Day up near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away, she's
A                                     D
Lookin' for that home, and I hope she finds it, but, I'd
D                                  A
Trade all of my tomorrows, for one single yesterday, to be
E                            E
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
