Livin' on the road my friend, was gonna keep us free and clean But now you wear
D A G
your skin like iron, and your breath's as hard as kerosene You weren't your momma's
D G D G A Asus4 A Asus4 A
only boy, but her favorite one, it seems. She began to cry when you said good-bye
G Bm G A D A G A A/sus4 A
And sank into your dreams Pancho was a bandit, boys. His horse was fast as
G D A
polished steel He wore his gun outside his pants, for all the honest world to fear
G D G D
Poncho met his match you know, on the deserts down in Mexico. Nobody heard
G G/F# A G Bm G A
his dying words Aw but that's the way it goes
G D G
All the federales say, they could have had him any day
Bm G G/F# A G Bm G A D
They only let him slip away Out of kindness, I suppose
D A G
Now Lefty he can't sing the blues, all night long, like he used to The dust that
D A G
Poncho bit down south, ended up in Lefty's mouth The day they laid poor Poncho low
D G D G G/F# A G Bm G A
Lefty split for Ohio Where he got the bread to go There ain't nobody knows CHORUS
D A G D A G D G Bm G A Asus4 A Asus2 A G Bm A
D A G
Now poets sing how Pancho fell, and Lefty's living in cheap hotels The desert's quiet and
D A G
Cleveland's cold, and so the story ends we're Poncho needs your prayers, it's true.
D G Bn G G/F A
But save a few for Lefty too He only did what he had to do
G Bm G A
And now, he's growing old CHORUS
G D G D G
A few gray federales say, they could have had him any day They only let him go
G/F# A G Bm G A D
so long Out of kindness, I suppose
