This is normally a piano song, at least it was when Joni originally
did it on an early album. But this is from a David Crosby version
from the "Alies" album. Typed from memory. Mea culpa if there's any
errors. Phil-
Real Good For Free
Joni Mitchell

G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1) I slept last night in a good hotel
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)I went shopping today for jewels
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)The wind rushed around in the dirty town
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)And the children let out from the schools
Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1)I was standing on anoisy (x02210@1)corner
C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) F (133211@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C D (xx0232@1)Waiting for the walking green
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)Across the street he stood, and he played real good
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
On his clarinet for free
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)Now me, I play for fortunes
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
And the velvet curtain calls
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)I got ablack (x02210@1)limosine and afew (x02210@1)gentlemen
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)Escorting me to these halls
Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1)And I'll play if you have the money
C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) F (133211@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C D (xx0232@1)Or if you're afriend (x02210@1)to me
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)But the one-man-band by the quick lunch stand
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)(Em D)
He was playing real good for free
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)Nobody stopped to hear him
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)Though he played so sweet and high
G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)They knew he had never been on their TV
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)So they passed his good music by
Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1)I meant to go over and ask for asong (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)D (xx0232@1)Maybe put on aharmony (x02210@1) G (320003@1) Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Em (022000@1)I heard his refrain as that signal changed
Am (x02210@1) C (x32010@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)(Em D)
He was still playing real good for free
