[C][C]
[C][G][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
[C]Living on the road my friend
[G]Is gonna keep you free and clean
[F]Now you wear your skin like iron
And your [C]breath's as hard as ke[G]rosene
[F]You weren't your mama's only boy
But her [C]favorite one it [F]seems
She be[Am]gan to cry when you [F]said goodb[G]ye
[F]And sank into your dre[Am]ams

[Verse 2]
[C]Pancho was a bandit boys
[G]His horse was fast as polished steel
[F]He wore his gun
For [C]all the honest [G]world to feel
[F]Pancho met his match you know
On the [C]deserts down in [F]Mexico
And [Am]nobody heard his [F]dying [G]words
[F]But that's the way it goe[Am]s

[Chorus 1]
[F]And all the Federales say
[C]They could have had him any[F] day
[Am]They only let him [F]hang aroun[G]d
Out of [F]kindness I sup[Am]pose

[Verse 3]
[C]Lefty, he can't sing the blues
[G]All night long like he used to
[F]The dust that Pancho bit down south
[C]Ended up in [G]Lefty's mouth
[F]The day they laid poor Pancho low
[C]Lefty split for O h[F]io
[Am]Where he got the bread[F] to go[G]
There [F]ain't nobody [Am]knows

[Chorus 2]
[F]And all the Federales say
[C]They could have had him any[F] day
[Am]They only let him [F]slip away[G]
Out of [F]kindness I sup[Am]pose

[Verse 4]
[C]Well the poets tell how Pancho fell
[G]And Lefty's living in a cheap hotel
[F]The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
[C]And so the story end[G]s we're told
[F]Pancho needs your prayers it's true
But [C]save a few for [F]Lefty too
[Am]He just did what he ha[F]d to d[G]o
Oh, and [F]now he's growing [Am]old

[Chorus 3]
[F]And a few grey Federales say
[C]They could have had him any[F] day
[Am]They only let him go s[F]o wron[G]g
Out of [F]kindness I sup[Am]pose

[Chorus 4]
[F]A few grey Federales say
[C]They could have had him any[F] day
[Am]They only let him go s[F]o wron[G]g
Out of [F]kindness I sup[Am]pose
