on the road my friend
[G] Was gonna keep you free and clean
[F] Now you wear your skin like [C] iron
Your breath's as hard [G] as _ [F] kerosene
Richard Mama _ _ [C] was a favorite [F] one it seemed
She [Am] began to cry [C] when you [G] said goodbye
Then _ _ _ [F] sank into your [Am] dream
_ _ _ [G] _ [C] _
Pancho was a bandit
_ [G] His horse was fast like polished steel
_ [F] He wore his gun outside his pants
[C] For all the [G] honest world to [F] feel
_ Pancho that you know
[C] In the deserts [F] down in Mexico
[Am] And no one [F] heard [C] his [G] dying word _ _ _ _
[F] But that's the way it [Am] goes _ _
_ [G] _ [F] _ All the feds are right to say
[C] We could have [F] had him anything
[Am]
We only let [F] him [C] slip [G] away _
Out _ [F] of kindness I [Am] suppose _
_ _ _ [G] _ [C] _ Lefty doesn't seem to blue
[G] All night long like he used [F] to
The dusty Pancho bit down south
[C] _
Ended up [G] in Lefty's [F] mouth
Day they laid Pancho low
[C] Lefty's fit [F] for Ohio
[Am] And where he got [C] the [G] bread to go
_ _ _ _ [F] There ain't nobody [Am] known

All the feds say
[C] We could have [F] had him anything
[Am] We only let him slip [G] away
_ Out _ [F]

_ [G] _ [C] _ poets tell how Pancho fell
[G] And Lefty's living in a cheap motel
[F]
The desert's quiet and Cleveland's [C] cold
And so the story [G] ends we're [F] told
Pancho needs your prayers it's [C] true
Let's save a few [F] for Lefty too
[Am] He only [F] did what he [C] had [G] to do
_ _ _ [F] Oh and now he's growing [Am] _
old
_ _ _ _ [F] All the feds _ [C] say
