D                                A
...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

G                                         D               G
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.
  [Verse 3]
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
[Chorus 2]
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
[Solo] G D G Bm D A G Bm A [Verse 4]
D                          A
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
[Chorus 3]
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 go so long out of kindness, I suppose
[Chorus 4]
G                        D                          G
A few gray Federales say... they could have had him any day

Bm                G  D  A           G           Bm   A
They only let him go so long out of kindness, I suppose.
