Pancho And Lefty Uke tab by Townes Van Zandt

#i think it sounds better in D but not the minor tone Bm, too high)

Intro: F - Dm 

F
Living on the road my friend is
   C
is gonna keep you free and clean
Bb
Now you wear your skin like iron
     F                 C
your breath as hard as kerosene

Bb
Weren’t your mama’s only boy 
        F               Bb
but her favorite one it seems
      Dm                  Bb   F    C
She began to cry when you said good bye
    Bb            Dm
And sank into her dreams
 
F
Pancho was a bandit boys 
    C
his horse was fast as polished steel
   Bb
He wore his gun outside his pants 
    F              C
for all the honest world to feel

Bb
Pancho met his match you know 
       F               Bb
on the deserts down in Mexico
Dm               Bb F   C
Nobody heard his dy-ing words  
       Bb                Dm
Ah but that’s the way it goes

Dm C Bb
     All the Federales say 
F                       Bb
they could have had him any day
Dm                Bb   F C
They only let him slip a-way 
       Bb             Dm
out of kindness I sup-pose
