Letra

[Verse 1]
C C/B Am
C/G  C               C/B                Am       C/G
   I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance  for you
F            G7sus4 G7
 In worn out shoes 
C                  C/B              Am      C/G
Silver hair and ragged shirt and baggy pants
F             G7sus4 G7
 The old soft shoe  

[Refrain]
F             C   E7
 He jumped so high
                 Am C/G
He jumped so high
F#m7b5                            G7sus4 G7
      Then he'd lightly touch down

[Chorus]
Am         G
  Mister Bojangles
Am         G
  Mister Bojangles
Am         G
  Mister Bojangles

[Verse 2]
  C                C/B              Am     C/G
I met him in a cell   in New Orleans  I was
F            G7sus4 G7
 down and out
   C                 C/B        Am      C/G
He looked to me to be   the eyes  of age
F                     G7sus4 G7
 As he spoke right out

[Refrain]
F             C   E7
 He talked of life
                 Am C/G
He talked of life
F#m7b5                             G7sus4
      He lightly slapped his leg instead 

[Verse 3]
G7   C                  C/B               Am      C/G
  He said the name Bojangles and he danced  A lick
F               G7sus4 G7
 across the cell
   C                      C/B
He grabbed his pants a better stance
         Am            C/G
Whoa, he jumped so high
F               G7sus4 G7
 He clicked his heels 

[Refrain]
F                 C   E7            Am C/G
 He let go a laugh he let go a laugh
F#m7b5                            G7sus4 G7
      Shook back his clothes all around 

[Chorus]
Am         G

Am         G

[Verse 4]
   C                   C/B                    Am      C/G
He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs
F                    G7sus4 G7
 Throughout the South
   C                       C/B               Am         C/G
He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog And him
F              G7sus4 G7
 traveled about

[Refrain]
F                   C
 His dog up and died
E7        Am  C/G
He up and died
F#m7b5                                   G7sus4
      After twenty years he still grieves

[Verse 5]
G7   C                   C/B                Am     C/G
  He said I dance now at every chance in honkytonks
F                   G7sus4 G7
 For drinks and tips
    C                       C/B                 Am     C/G
But most of the time I spend   behind these county bars
F                    G7sus4 G7
 Cause I drinks a bit

[Refrain]
F             C        E7              Am  C/G
 He shook his head and as he shook his head
F#m7b5                    G7sus4 G7
      I heard someone ask please

[Chorus]
Am         G
  Mister Bojangles
