Me And Bobby Mcgee(Chords)

	        

   
C (muted)   
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the train,  
C                           G   
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans,   
   
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,   
                             C   
Took us all the way to New Orleans,   
   
I took my mouth harp out of my old dirty red bandana   
                              C7        F   
I was playin' sad while Bobby sang the blues,   
                                           C   
Those windshield wipers slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands, we fin'lly   
G                               C     C7   
Sang up every song that driver knew. Whoa   
   
   
F                               C   
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose.   
G                                     C    C7   
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free. Whoa   
F                               C   
Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues.   
G                                    N/C              Dxux2 
Feelin' good was good enough for me,  

Good enough for me and Bobby McGee. 
  
   
   
(Key change)   
   
   
D (muted)   
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun   
D                               A   
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.   
   
Standin' right beside me, Lord, thru everything I done,   
                                      D   
Ev'ry night she kept me from the cold.   
    
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away,   
                                    G   
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find.   
                                     D   
I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday   
A                             D    Dsus2   
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine. Whoa   
   
 repest chorus twice
