    Mr.

    Bojangles
    C Em Am F G
    I knew a man Bojangles and he’d dance for you, In worn out shoes
    C Em Am F G
    The silver hair a ragged shirt and baggy pants, That old soft shoe
    F G E7 Am D9 G G7
    He’d jump so high, Jump so high, Then he’d lightly touch down

    Am G Am G C Em Am C
    Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, D – a – n – c - e

    C Em Am F G
    I met him in a cell in New Orleans, I was down and out
    C Em Am F G
    He looked to me to be the eyes of age, As he spoke right out
    F G E7 Am D9 G G7
    He talked of life, he talked of life, Then he laughed and slapped his leg a step
    (chorus)

    C Em Am F G
    He said the name Bojangles then he danced a lick, All across the cell
    C Em Am F G
    He grabbed his pants for a better stance Oh he jumped so high, And clicked up his heels
    F G E7 Am D9 G G7
    He let go a laugh, let go a laugh, Shook his clothes all around
    (chorus)

    C Em Am F G
    He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs, Throughout the south
    C Em Am F G
    He spoke with tears of 15 years how his dog and him, Just traveled about
    F G E7 Am D9 G G7
    His dog up and died, he up and died, After 20 years he still grieves
    (chorus)

    C Em Am F G
    He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks, For drinks and tips
    C Em Am F G
    But most of the time I spend behind these county bars, cause I drinks a bit
    F G E7 Am D9 G G7
    He shook his head, and he shook his head, I heard someone ask him “Please”
    (chorus)

    Am G C
    Mr. Bojangles, dance
