[VERSE 1]
[C]Busted flat in Baton Rouge headed for the trains
Feelin' nearly faded as my [G]jeans

Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
Took us all the way to New [C]Orleans
[C]I took my har'poon out of my dirty red bandana
I was playin' sad while Bobby sang the [E]blues
With them windshield whipers slappin' time and [C]Bobby clappin' hands
We finally s[G]ang up ever song that driver knew

[CHORUS]
[E]Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
[G]Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
[E]Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
[G]Feeling it was good enough for me good enough for me and Bobby McGee

[VERSE 2]
[D]From the coal mines of Kentucky to the C[A]alifornia sun
B[D]obby shared the secrets of my s[A]oul

Standin' right beside me Lord through everything I done
Every night she'd keep me from the [D]cold
[D]Somewhere near Salinas Lord Bobby slipped away
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll [G]find
I'd trade all of my tomorrows for j[D]ust one yesterday
H[A]olding her body close to [D]mine

[CHORUS]
[E]Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
[G]Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
[E]Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
[G]Feeling it was good enough for me good enough for me and Bobby McGee
