Pancho And Lefty
Merle Haggard
D
Verse 1
D Livin' on the road, my friend A Was gonna keep you free and clean G And now you wear your skin like iron D A And your breath's as hard as kerosene G Weren't your mama's only boy D G But her favorite one, it seems Bm G D A She began to cry when you said goodbye G Bm A/C#* (And) sank into your dreams
Verse 2
D Pancho was a bandit, boys A 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 Well, Pancho met his match, you know D G On the deserts down in Mexico Bm G D A Nobody heard his dyin' words G Bm A* Ah, but that's the way it goes
Chorus
G All the federales say D G They could have had him any day Bm G D A They only let him slip away G Bm A/C#* Out of kindness, I suppose
Verse 3
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 Bm G D A Where he got the bread to go G Bm A* There ain't nobody knows
Chorus
G All the federales say D G They could have had him any day Bm G D A We only let him slip away G Bm A* Out of kindness, I suppose
Verse 4
D The poets tell how Pancho fell A And Lefty's livin' in a cheap hotel 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 Bm G D A He only did what he had to do G Bm A* And now he's growin' old
Chorus
G All the federales say D G They could have had him any day Bm G D A They only let him go so long G Bm A/C#* Out of kindness, I suppose
Final Chorus
G A few gray federales say D G They could have had him any day Bm G D A They only let him go so long G Bm Gmaj7 A D Out of kindness, I suppose
