[G#m] [E]
Living on the road, my friend, [B] is gonna keep you free and [G#m] clean, [Am] but [E] now you're wasting
my card with the [B] smartest hair I've seen.
[E] Wasn't your mama's only boy, but her favorite one it seems.
[G#m] [C#m] She began to [Em] cry when you said [B] goodbye.
[A] Sank into [C#m] your dreams.
[B] [E]
Poncho was a bandit boy, [B] his horse was passed to Molly [E] Steele.
He wore his gun outside of pants for all the [B] honest world to feel.
[E] Poncho made his match, you know, in the deserts down in Mexico.
[G#m] [C#m] Nobody [E] heard his [B] dying words, but [A] that's the [G#m] way [C#m] it is.
[A]
All the [E] friends are all the same, you could have had him any [C#m] day,
but you only let [E] him [B] slip away.
[G#m] [A] By the kindness [G#m] I've [C#m] seen.

[B] [E]
Lefty, he can't sing the blues [B]
all night long like he used to.
[A] The dust that Poncho bit down [E] south ended up [B] in Lefty's mouth.
[E]
They didn't live for Poncho though.
Lefty split for Ohio, [C#m]
where he [E] got the bread [B] to go.
[E] There ain't [C#m] nobody to trust.
[E]
All the friends are all the same, you could have [A] had him any [G#m] day,
[C#m]
but you only [B] let him slip away.
[A] By the kindness [C#m] I suppose.

[B] [E]
Poets tell how Poncho fell.
[B]
Lefty's living in a cheap hotel.
[E] The desert's quiet, but Cleveland's cold.
So the [B] story ends with a [A] poem.
Poncho needed prayer, it's [E] true.
Save a few [A] for Lefty too.
[C#m] He just [E] did what he [B] had to do.
[Em] [C#m]
[E]
See, Bradfeller, all he said, you could have had him any [C#m] day,
but you only let him go [B] so long.
By the kindness [G#m] I [C#m] suppose.
[A]
See, Bradfeller, all he [E] said, you could have [A] had him any [G#m] day,
