Pancho and Lefty Recorded by Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson Written by Townes Van Zandt C Living on the road my friend G7 Was gonna keep us free and clean F But now you wear your skin like iron C G7 And your breath's as hard as kerosene
F You weren't your mama's only boy C F But her favorite one it seems Am F G7 She began to cry when you said good bye F Am And sank into your dreams
C Pancho was a bandit boy G7 Rode a horse fast as polished steel F He wore his guns outside his pants C G7 For all the honest world to feel
F Pancho met his match you know C F On the deserts down in Mexico Am F G7 Nobody heard his dying words F Am But that's the way it goes
F And all the federales say C F They could have had him any day Am F G7 They only let him slip away F Am Out of kindness I suppose
C Now Lefty he can't sing the blues G7 All night long like he used to F The dust that Pancho bit down South C G7 It ended up in Lefty's mouth
F The day they laid poor Pancho low C F Lefty split for Ohio Am F G7 Where he got the bread to go F Am Well there ain't nobody knows
F And all the federales say C F They could have had him any day Am F G7 They only let him slip away F Am Out of kindness I suppose
C The poets tell how Pancho fell G7 Lefty's living in a cheap hotel F The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold C G7 And so the story ends we're told
F Pancho needs your prayers it's true C F But save a few for Lefty too Am F G7 He only did what he had to do F Am And now he's growing old
F And all the federales say C F They could have had him any day Am F G7 They only let him go so long F Am Out of kindness I suppose
F A few gray federales say C F They could have had him any day Am F G7 They only let him go so long F Am Out of kindness I suppose
