Pancho and Lefty
(Townes Van Zandt)


[Verse 1]

G
Livin' on the road, my friend
D
Was gonna keep us free and clean
C
But now you wear your skin like iron
G                              D
And your breath's as hard as kerosene
C
You weren't your mama's only boy
G                        C
But her favorite one, it seems
Em                        C         D
She began to cry when you said good bye
    C              Em
And sank into your dreams


[Verse 2]

G
Pancho was a bandit, boys
D
Rode a horse fast as polished steel
C
Wore his guns outside his pants
G                  D
For all the honest world to feel
C
Pancho met his match, you know
G                      C
On the deserts down in Mexico
Em               C     D
No one heard his dyin' words
    C                 Em
But that's the way it goes


[Chorus]

    C
And all the federales say
     G                  C
They could have had him any day
     Em           C    D
They only let him slip away
       C              Em
Out of kindness, I suppose


[Verse 3]

    G
Now Lefty he can't sing the blues
D
All night long like he used to
    C
The dust that Pancho bit down South
   G           D
It ended up in Lefty's mouth
    C
The day they laid old Pancho low
G               D
Lefty split for Ohio
Em               C        D
Where he got the bread to go
           C             Em
Well there ain't nobody 'knows


[Chorus]

    C
But all the federales say
     G                  C
They could have had him any day
     Em           C    D
They only let him slip away
       C              Em
Out of kindness, I suppose


[Verse 4]

    G
Now poets sing how Pancho fell
D
Lefty's livin' in a cheap hotel
    C
The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
    G            D
And so the story ends, we're told
C
Pancho needs your prayers, it's true
    G              D
But save a few for Lefty, too
   Em               C      D
He only did what he had to do
    C                Em
And now he's growin' old


[Chorus]

    C
And all the federales say
     G                  C
They could have had him any day
     Em           C    D
They only let him slip away
       C              Em
Out of kindness, I suppose

      C
Yes a few old gray federales still say
     G                  C
They could have had him any day
     Em           C     D
They only let him go so wrong
       C              Em
Out of kindness, I suppose
