...Living on the road my friend... was gonna keep you free and clean
G                                D                           A
Now you wear your skin like iron, and your breath as hard as kerosene

You weren't your mama's only boy, but her favorite one it seems
Bm                 G     D     A        G                    Bm   A
She began to cry when you said goodbye... and sank into your dreams

Verse 2:
D                          A
Pancho was a bandit, boys... his horse was fast as polished steel
G                                 D                       A
He wore his gun outside his pants... for all the honest world to feel.
G                                     D               G
Pancho met his match you know, on the deserts down in Mexico
Bm                G   D   A      G                           Bm   A
Nobody heard his dy...ing words... ah, but that's the way it goes.

Chorus 1:
G                      D                         G
All the Federales say... they could have had him any day
Bm                 G   D   A          G           Bm    A
They only let him slip a...way out of kindness, I suppose.

D                              A
Lefty, he can't sing the blues... all night long like he used to
G                                   D              A
The dust that Pancho bit down south... ended up in Lefty's mouth
G                                 D                  G
The day they laid poor Pancho low... Lefty split for Ohio
Bm               G     D    A     G                  Bm   A
Where he got the bread to.. go... there ain't nobody knows

Poets tell how Pancho fell... and Lefty's living in cheap hotels
G                                    D                 A
The desert's quiet, Cleveland's cold, and so the story ends we're told
G                                   D                     G
Pancho needs your prayers it's true... but save a few for Lefty too
Bm                  G   D  A   G                      Bm   A
He only did what he had to do... and now he's growing old

They only let him go so long out of kindness, I suppose

G                        D                          G
A few gray Federales say... they could have had him any day

They only let him go so long out of kindness, I suppose.
