D
Living on the road, my friend,
A
Is gonna keep you free and clean,
G
Now you wear your skin like iron,
D A
And your breath's as hard as kerosene.
G
You weren't your mama's only boy,
D G
But her favorite one it seems
D G D A
You heard her cry when you said goodbye,
G Bm e:--2---------------|
She sank into your dreams. B:----3-------------|
G:------2-----------| Bm Riff
D D:----------------0-|
Pancho was a bandit boy, A:-----------2-4----|
A E:------------------|
His horse was fast as polished steel.
G
He wore his gun outside his pants
D A
For all the honest world to feel.
G
Pancho met his match, you know,
D G
On the deserts down in Mexico.
D G D A
Nobody heard his dying words,
G Bm A
Ah, but that's the way it goes.
G
All the Federales say
D G
They could have had him any day,
D G D A
They only let him slip a - way
G Bm Riff
Out of kindness, I suppose
D
Lefty, he can't sing the blues
A
All night long like he used to.
G
The dust that Pancho bit down south
D A
Ended up in Lefty's mouth.
G
The day they laid poor Pancho low,
D G
Lefty split for Ohio
D G D A
Where he got the bread to go,
G Bm A
There ain't nobody knows
G
All the Federales say
D G
They could have had him any day,
D G D A
They only let him slip a - way
G Bm
Out of kindness, I suppose
Solo (3:10)
D
The poets tell how Pancho fell,
A
And Lefty's living in cheap hotels.
G
The desert's quiet, and Cleveland's cold,
D A
And so the story ends we're told.
G
Pancho needs your prayers, it's true,
D G
But save a few for Lefty too.
D G D A
He only did what he had to do,
G Bm A
And now he's growing old
G
All the Federales say
D G
They could have had him any day,
D G D A
They only let him slip a - way
G Bm A
Out of kindness, I suppose
G
A few gray Federales say
D G
We could have had them any day,
D G D A
We only let 'em go so wrong
G Bm
Out of kindness, I suppose
G D
