[Intro]
[Lick1] C G/B Am
[Verse]
C G/B Am Am/G
I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you
F G [Lick1]
In worn out shoes
C G/B Am Am/G
With silver hair, a ragged shirt, and baggy pants
F G [Lick2]
The old soft shoe
F Em E Am Am/G
He jumped so high, jumped so high
D/F# G G7 [Lick1]
Then he lightly touched down
C G/B Am Am/G
I met him in a cell in New Orleans I was
F G [Lick1]
down and out
C G/B Am Am/G
He looked to me to be the eyes of age
F G [Lick2]
as he spoke right out
F Em E Am Am/G D/F#
He talked of life, talked of life, he laughed
G G7 [Lick1]
clicked his heels and stepped
C G/B Am Am/G
He said his name "Bojangles" and he danced a lick
F G [Lick1]
across the cell
C G/B Am Am/G
He grabbed his pants and spread his stance,Oh he jumped so high
F G [Lick2]
and then he clicked his heels
F Em E Am Am/G
He let go a laugh, let go a laugh
D/F# G G7
and shook back his clothes all around
[Chorus]
Am G Am G
Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles
Am G C G/B Am [Lick1]
Mr. Bojangles, dance
[Verse]
C G/B Am Am/G
He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs
F G [Lick1]
throughout the south
C G/B Am Am/G
He spoke through tears of 15 years how his dog and him
F G [Lick2]
traveled about
F Em E Am Am/G
The dog up and died, he up and died
D/F# G G7
And after 20 years he still grieves
C G/B Am Am/G
He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks
F G [Lick1]
for drinks and tips
C G/B Am Am/G
But most the time I spend behind these county bars
F G [Lick2]
'cause I drinks a bit
F Em E Am Am/G
He shook his head, and as he shook his head
D/F# G G7
I heard someone ask him please plee-ease
[Chorus]
Am G Am G
Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles
Am G C G/B Am Am/G C ......
Mr. Bojangles, dance
