Verso:
  G         Bm
I knew a man Bojangles
         Em           Riff: Em7  Em  Em/F#  C
And he'll dance for you
( C )            D
  In worn out shoes
 G                   Bm           Em          Riff: Em7  Em  Em/F#  C
 With silver hair and ragged shirt baggy pants
( C )                     D
  He would do the old soft shoe

Ponte:
C               Bm
 He would jump so high
B         Em  Em7  A7
Jump  so hi-igh
A7                        D
  Then he lightly  touched down

He told me of the time he worked with Minstrel shows
Travelling throughout the south
He spoke with tears of fifteen years
How his dog and he, they would travel about.
But his dog up and died, he up and died
And after twenty years he still grieved

Refr?o:
Em             D
 That's mister Bojangles
Em               D
 Calling mister Bojangles
Em         D                    G         Bm
Mister Bojangles come back and dance and dance
    Em          (Riff)
And dance please dance

He said I dance now
At every chance in the Honky Tonks
For my drinks and tips
But most the time I spend
Behind these country bars
You see on I drinks a bit
Then he shook his head
Oh lord when he shook his head
I could swear I heard someone say please

Refr?o:
Em             D
 That's mister Bojangles
Em               D
 Calling mister Bojangles
Em         D                    G         Bm
Mister Bojangles come back and dance and dance
    Em           (Riff)
And dance please dance
