ME AND BOBBY McGEE  By Kris Kristofferson

C                                                                        G7

BUSTED IN FLAT IN BATON ROUGE  HEADING FOR THE TRAIN  FEELING NEARLY FADED AS MY JEANS

                                                                                                                                                        C

BOBBY THUMBED A DIESEL DOWN JUST BEFORE IT RAINED   TOOK US ALL THE WAY TO NEW ORLEANS

C                                                                                                                                                                

I TOOK MY HARPOON OUT OF MY DIRTY RED BANDANNA 

              C7                       F

AND WAS BLOWIN' SAD WHILE BOBBY SANG THE BLUES

                                      C

WITH THEM WINDSHIELD WIPERS SLAPPIN TIME  HOLDING BOBBIE'S HAND IN MINE

           G7                        C

WE FINALLY SANG EVERY SONG THAT DRIVER KNEW

chorus:

F                                C

FREEDOMS' JUST ANOTHER WORD FOR NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE

G                               C   

NOTHING AIN'T WORTH NOTHING BUT IT'S FREE

F                               C

FEELING GOOD WAS EASY LORD WHEN BOBBIE SANG THE BLUES

    G

AND FEELING GOOD WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME

                               C

GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME AND BOBBIE McGEE

C

FROM THE COAL MINES OF KENTUCKY TO THE CALIFORNIA SUN

                                                           G

BOBBIE SHARED THE SECRETS OF MY SOUL

THROUGH ALL KINDS OF WEATHER  LORD AND THROUGH EVERYTHING I DONE

                                                        C

BOBBIE'S BODY KEPT ME FROM THE COLD

THEN SOMEWHERE NEAR SALINAS LORD I LET HER SLIP AWAY

                                                                            F

SHE WAS LOOKING FOR THE HOME I HOPE SHE'LL FIND IT

                                                                      C

BUT I'D TRADE ALL MY TOMORROWS FOR ONE SINGLE YESTERDAY

G

HOLDING BOBBIE'S BODY NEXT TO MINE

chorus:
