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
intro: C G D G C D
G I sleptFmaj7 last night Emin a good hotel
I went shoppinAmg today forC jewels F C
The winGd rushed around iFmaj7n the dirty tEmown
And the childreAmn let out fromC the schoolsF C
I was standinAmg on a noisy corner G
WaitingC for the walkingG green F C D
Across Gthe street he stood, Fmaj7and he played Emreal good
On his clarineAmt for Cfree F C
Now me,G I play foFmaj7r fortunesEm
And the velvet AmcurtainC calls F C
I got a black lGimosine andFmaj7 a few gentlemeEmn
EscortingAm me to thesCe halls F C
And I'll play ifAm you have the money G
Or if you'Cre a friend Gto me F C D
But theG one-man-band byFmaj7 the quick luEmnch stand
Am C F C (Em D)
He was playing real good for free
Nobody Gstopped Fmaj7to hear himEm
Though he played Amso sweet aCnd high F C
They knew heG had never bFmaj7een on theirEm TV
So they passed Amhis good music bCy F C
I meant tAmo go over and ask forG a song
Maybe put on Ca harmonyG F C D
I heardG his refrainFmaj7 as that signal cEmhanged
Am C F C (Em D)
He was still playing real good for free
