Paroles

[Intro]
| G | Gmaj7/F# |

[Verse 1]
Em7
G  G                Gmaj7/F#            Em7
 I knew a man "Bojangles", and he danced   for you
G C            D
   In worn out shoes
G
Silver hair,
     Gmaj7/F#         Em7
a ragged shirt and baggy pants
G C             D
   The old soft shoe

[Interlude]
C
 He jumped so high
Bm B
    jumped so high
Em G
Asus2                                D
     And then he'd lightly touch down

[Verse 2]
  G                Gmaj7/F#
I met him in a cell        in New Orleans,
Em7
   I was
G C         D
   Down and out
   G                 Gmaj7/F#        Em7
He looked to me to be        the eyes   of age
G C                 D
   As the smoke ran out

[Interlude]
C             Bm
 He talked of life
B
 talked of life
Em G Asus2
          He laugh,
                      D
clicked his heels and stepped

[Verse 3]
   G                   Gmaj7/F#            Em7
He said his name "Bojangles", and he danced   a lick
G C               D
   Across the cell
   G                        Gmaj7/F#
He grabbed his pants and feathered stance
       Em7
Oh, he jumped so high
G C                    D
   Then he clicked his heels

[Pre-Chorus]
C                 Bm
 He let go a laugh
B             Em
let go a laugh
G Asus2                                 D
       Shook back his clothes all around

[Chorus]
Em         D
  Mister Bojangles
Em         D
  Mister Bojangles
Em         D  G
  Mister Bojangles
Gmaj7/F# Em7
            Dance

[Verse 4]
G                      Gmaj7/F#           Em7   G
He danced for those in minstrel shows and county
C
 fairs
               D
Throughout the south
G                      Gmaj7/F#          Em7            G C
He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and him
          D   C
Traveled about

[Interlude]
               Bm   B          Em  G Asus2
The dog up and died, he_up and died
                            D      G
After twenty years he still grieves

[Verse 5]
He said,
         Gmaj7/F#                Em7  G
"I dance now_at  every chance in honky
C
 tonks
               D
For drinks and tips
G                   Gmaj7/F#             Em7   G
But most the time I spend   behind these county
C
 bars
                   D   C
Because I drinks a bit"

[Pre-Chorus]
                 Bm B
He shook his head
Em                  G   Asus2
And as he shook his head
                    D
I heard someone ask him "Please"
Please

[Chorus]
Em
       D    Em
Mister Bojangles
       D    Em
Mister Bojangles
         D  G
Mister Bojangles

[Outro]
Gmaj7/F# Em7 G
             Dance
Uhm
