Hợp Âm Chuẩn
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

Real Good For Free
Joni Mitchell
Intro
I slept last night in a good hotel
I went shopping today for jewels
The wind rushed around in the dirty town
And the children let out from the schools
I was standing on a noisy corner
Waiting for the walking green
Across the street he stood, and he played real good
On his clarinet for free
Now me, I play for fortunes
And the velvet curtain calls
I got a black limosine and a few gentlemen
Escorting me to these halls
And I'll play if you have the money
Or if you're a friend to me
But the one-man-band by the quick lunch stand
He was playing real good for free
Nobody stopped to hear him
Though he played so sweet and high
They knew he had never been on their TV
So they passed his good music by
I meant to go over and ask for a song
Maybe put on a harmony
I heard his refrain as that signal changed
He was still playing real good for free
