Desperados Waiting for a Train
The Highwaymen
D
(início)
D I'd play the Red River Valley A Bm And he'd sit out in the kitchen and cry G Em D Bm Run his fingers through seventy years of livin' G Em A And wonder, Lord, has every well I drilled run dry A D We were friends, me and this old man
Chorus
Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G D/F# Em Asus4 A Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 2
D He's a drifter and a driller of oil wells A Bm And an old school man of the world G Em D Bm He'd let me drive his car when he's too drunk to G Em A And he'd wink and give me money for the girls A D And our lives was like some old western movie
Chorus
Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G D/F# Em Asus4 A Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 3
D From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him A Bm To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe G Em D Bm And there was old men with beer guts and dominoes G Em A Lyin' about their lives while they'd play A D And I was just a kid, they called me Sidekick
Chorus
Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G D/F# Em Asus4 A Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 4
D One day I looked up and he's pushin' eighty A Bm Brown tobacco stains all down his chin G Em D Bm To me he's one of the heroes of this country G Em A So why's he all dressed up like them old men A D Drinkin' beer and playin' Moon and Forty Two
Chorus
Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G D/F# Em Asus4 A Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 5
D The day before he died I went to see him A Bm I was grown and he was almost gone G Em D Bm So we just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen G Em A And sang another verse to that old song A D Come on, Jack, that son of a bitch is coming
Chorus
Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G Like desperadoes waiting for a train Bm G D/F# Em Asus4 A D Like desperadoes waiting for a train
