Desperados Waiting for a Train Recorded by The Highwaymen Written by Guy Clark
C A#7 Am I'd play the Red River Valley G7 Am And he'd sit out in the kitchen and cry F Dm C Am And run his fingers through seventy years of living F Dm G7 And wonder Lord has every well I've drilled run dry C We were friends me and this old man Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Am Dm G7 Like desperados waiting for a train
C A#7 Am He's a drifter and a driller of oil wells G7 Am And an old school man of the world F Dm C Am He let me drive his car when he's too drunk to F Dm G7 And he'd wink and give me money for the girls C And our lives were like some old western movie Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Am Dm G7 Like desperados waiting for a train
C A#7 Am From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him G7 Am To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe F Dm C Am There were old men with beer guts and dominos F Dm G7 Lying 'bout their lives while they'd played C And I was just a kid they all called his sidekick Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Am Dm G7 Like desperados waiting for a train
C A#7 Am One day I looked up and he's pushing eighty G7 Am And there's brown tobacco stains all down his chin F Dm C Am To me he's one of the heroes of this country F Dm G7 So why's he all dressed up like them old men C Drinking beer and playing Moon and Forty-two Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Am Dm G7 Like desperados waiting for a train
C A#7 Am A day before he died I went to see him G7 Am I was grown and he was almost gone F Dm C Am So we just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen F Dm G7 And sang another verse to that old song C Come on Jack that son of a guns are coming Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Like desperados waiting for a train Am F Like desperados waitin for a train
