G G/D G G/D G G/D G G/D

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the train,

G G/D G G/D D D/AD/C D D/A

Feeling nearly faded as my jeans, / / | / / / / |

D D/A D D/A D D/A D D/A

Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just be - fore it rained,

D D/A D D/F# G (G/E)(G/D)(G/B)

Took us all the way to New Or - leans!

G G/D G G/D G G/D G G/D

I took my har - poon out of my dirty red ban - danna,

G G/D G G/B C C/E

And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues,

CC/E C C/E C C/E G G/D G

With those windshield wipers slapping time, and...Bobby clapping hands,

G/D D D/A D D/F# G (G/E)G/D(G)(G/A)(G/B)

We finally sung up every song that driver knew! | / / / / |

C C/E C C/E G G/D G G/D

Freedom, just a - nother word for... nothing left to lose,

D D/A D D/F# G G/DG (G)(G/A)(G/B)

Nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it's free, | / / / / |

Feelin' good was good e - nough for me, | / / / / |

D D/A D D/F# G G/DG G/D

Good e - nough for me and Bobby Mc - Gee! | / / / / |

A A/E A A/E A A/E A A/E

| / / / / | From the coal mines of Ken - tucky,

A A/E A A/E

To the Cali - fornia sun,

A A/E A A/E E E/BE E/B

Bobby shared the secrets of my soul, | / / / / |

E E/B E E/B E E/B E E/B

Standing right be - side me, Lord, through...every - thing I've done,

E E/B E E/G# A A/EA A/E

Every night she kept me from the cold, | / / / / |

A A/E A A/E A A/E A A/E

Then somewhere near Sa - linas, Lord, I let her slip a - way,
