Mr. Bojangles

Written by Jerry Jeff Walker

	  		Intro:  C  Em  Am  G  (4 x )  capo3 
  
  C            Em 
I knew a man Bojangles  
          Am          C 
And he'd dance for you 
F             G    
 In worn out shoes 
     C               Em 
The silver hair, a  ragged shirt 
     Am       C 
And baggy pants 
F               G   
 The old soft shoe 
F              G    E         Am   C 
 He'd jump so high,  jump so high 
D                        G   
 Then he'd lightly touch down 
 C                 Em 
He told me of the time he worked with 
   Am         C F                          G 
Minstrel shows traveling Throughout the south 
    C                    Em 
He spoke with tears of fifteen years 
        Am        C F                  G 
How his dog and he They would travel about. 
F                   G   E          Am   C 
But his dog up and died He up and died 
D                               G 
And after twenty years he still grieved 
             C            Em                  Am        C 
He said "I dance now At every chance in the Honky Tonks 
F                  G        C              Em 
For my drinks and tips but most the time I spend 
                  Am     C F                     G 
Behind these country bars You see on I drinks a bit" 
F                  G       E                      Am  C                       
Then he shook his head Oh lord when he shook his head 
D                                  G 
I could swear I heard someone say please 
  
Am              G      Am                G      Am       G                
  Thatī Mr. Bojangles,  Call him Mr. Bojangles,  Mr. Bojangles,    
               C         Em        Am       C  
Come back and dance and dance and dance please dance 
Am       G      Am       G      Am       G                
 Mr. Bojangles,  Mr. Bojangles,  Mr. Bojangles,     
               C         Em        Am       C  
Come back and dance and dance and dance please dance
