Bobby Jean Acoustic chords by Bruce Springsteen

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: C

Verse 1:
 C           G
Well, I came by your house the other day
   Am        C
Your mother said you went away
    F           C
She said there was nothing that I could have done
        G             C
There was nothing nobody could say
   C         G
Me and you, we've known each other
    Am         C
Yeah, ever since we were sixteen
  F
I wished I would have known
  C
I wished I could have called you
    F   G        C
Just to say "Goodbye, Bobby Jean"

Verse 2:
 C            G         Am            C
Now you hung with me when all the others turned away turned up their nose
 F
We liked the same music
   C
We liked the same bands
          G       C
We liked the same clothes
 C            G
We told each other that we were the wildest
   Am           C
The wildest things we'd ever seen
    F
Now I wished you would have told me
  C
I wished I could have talked to you
   F     G       C
Just to say "Goodbye, Bobby Jean"

Bridge:
   F
Now we went walking in the rain
       C            Am
Talking about the pain from the world we hid
    F
Now there ain't nobody, nowhere, nohow
    C               G
Gonna ever understand me the way you did

Verse 3:
 C                   G
Well maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere
     Am           C
In some bus or train traveling along
     F             C
In some motel room there'll be a radio playing
       G          C
And you'll hear me sing this song
  C              G
Well if you do, you'll know I'm thinking of you
  Am          C
And all the miles in between
   F          C          Am
And I'm just calling one last time, not to change your mind
          F             G       C
But just to say "I miss you baby. Good luck. Goodbye, Bobby Jean"
