Me and Bobby McGee Charley Pride
Charlie Pride
[A]Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the train
Feelin' nearly faded as my [E]jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down,
Just before it rained
Took us all the way to New [A]Orleans
[A]I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna
And was blowing sad while [D]Bobby sang the blues
With those windshield wipers slappin' time
And [A]Bobby clappin' hands
We finally [E]sang up every song that driver [A]knew
[D]Freedom's just another word for [A]nothin' left to lose
[E]Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's [A]free
[D]Feeling good was easy Lord when [A]Bobby sang the blues
[E]Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [A]McGee
[A]
Bobby shared the secrets of my s[E]oul
Standin' right beside me Lord
Through everything I've done
And every night she kept me from the c[A]old
[A]Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away
Lookin' for the h[A]ome I hope she'll f[D]ind
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows
For a [A]single yesterday
[E]Holdin' Bobby's body next to m[A]ine
[D]Freedom's just another word for [A]nothin' left to lose
[E]Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's [A]free
[D]Feeling good was easy Lord when [A]Bobby sang the blues
[E]Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [A]McGee
