Chords

[Intro] N.C. If it sounds country, man, that's what it is! That's a country song. N.C. Yeah, okay. 1,2 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4 [Intro 2] A [Verse 1]
A                                 A                 
  Busted flat in Baton Rouge, mmm, headin' for the trains

A                              E7  
  Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans

E7                            E7              
  Bobby thumbed a diesel down   just before it rained

E7                              A      
  Took us all the way to New Orleans

A                             A             
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana

         A                                D     
And was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues

          D                                   A
With them windshield wipers slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands we finally

E7                              A   
Sang up every song that driver knew
[Chorus]
D                                  A                
   Freedom's just another word for  nothin' left to lose

E7                                       A    
   Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free

D                                    A                
   Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when   Bobby sang the blues

E7                                  E7
   Feeling good was good enough for me

E7                                     A  
    Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee
B [Verse 2]
         B                              B
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun

B                                 F#7
   Bobby shared the secrets of my soul

F#7                                        F#7
   Standin' right beside me, Lord, through    everything I done

F#7                                   B
    Every night she kept me from the cold

      B                              B
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away

B                                        E
    lookin' for the home I hope she'll find

        E                             B
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a    single yesterday

F#7                             B
   Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
[Chorus]
E                                 B
   Freedom's just another word for  nothin' left to lose

F#7                                  B  
   Nothin' left is all she left for me

E                                     B
   Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when    Bobby sang the blues

F#7
   Buddy, that was good enough for me

F#7                                B
   Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
[Bridge]
B                             B
   La-da-Da- da-Da da-Da Da     La-da-Da- da-Da 

B                              F#7
   La-da-Da- da- me and Bobby McGee

F#7                        F#7
   La-da-Da- da-Da da-Da Da     La-da-Da- da-Da 

F#7                             B
   La-da-Da- da- me and Bobby McGee
[Outro] (fade out)
B                             B
   La-da-Da- da-Da da-Da Da     La-da-Da- da-Da 

B                              F#7
   La-da-Da- da- me and Bobby McGee

F#7                        F#7
   La-da-Da- da-Da da-Da Da     La-da-Da- da-Da 

F#7                             B
   La-da-Da- da- me and Bobby McGee
