Pancho & Lefty taby ukulele według Merle Haggard

C
Living on the road my friend
G
Was gonna keep us free and clean
F
But now you wear your skin like iron
C                              G
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
She began to cry
F                   G
When you said good bye
F                    Am
And sank into your dreams

C
Pancho was a bandit boys
G
His horse was fast as polished steel
F
Wore his guns outside his pants
C                           G
For all the honest world to feel
F
Pancho met his match you know
C                        F
On the deserts down in Mexico
Am                       G
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     G
They only let him slip away
F                 Am
Out of kindness I suppose

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

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

C
The poets tell how Pancho fell
G
and Lefty's livin' in cheap hotels
F
The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
C                       G
And so the story ends we're told
F
Pancho needs your prayers it's true
C                    F      
save a few for Lefty too
Am                         G
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     G
They only let him slip away
F                 Am
Out of kindness I suppose

F
a few great federales say
C                          F
We could have had him any day
Am              F     G
We only let him go so long
F                 Am
Out of kindness I suppose
