Me and Bobby McGee Kris Kristofferson
Somewhat similar to other tabs for this song here in A, but they didn't have the
A7 and E7 chords and I think it makes a big difference.
[A]Busted flat in Baton Rouge headin' for the trains
Feelin' nearly faded as my [E7]jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
Took us all the way to New [A]Orleans
Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowin' sad while [A7]Bobby sang the [D]blues
With them windshield wipers slappin' time and
[A]Bobby clappin' hands we finally
[E7]Sang up every song that driver [A]knew[A7]
[D]Freedom's just another word for [A] nothin' left to lose
[E7]And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's[A] free[A7]
[D]Feelin' good was easy Lord when [A]Bobby sang the blues
And [E7]feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby [A]McGee
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my [E7]soul
Standin' right beside me through everythin' I done
And every night she kept me from the [A]cold
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away
She was [A7]lookin' for the home I hope she'll [D]find
Well I'd trade all my tomorrows for a[A] single yesterday
[E7]Holdin' Bobby's body close to [A]mine
[D]Freedom's just another word for [A] nothin' left to lose
[E7]And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's[A] free[A7]
[D]Feelin' good was easy Lord when [A]Bobby sang the blues
And [E7]feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby [A]McGee
