Saturday April 5, 2008: Proper Pancho & Lefty chords

Found this page for the song in the key of D, which appears to be sharp by one semitone. When I transcribe it into C♯ I can play along with the original by Townes Van Zant.

C♯
Living on the road, my friend,
A♭
Was gonna keep you free and clean,
F♯
Now you wear your skin like iron,
    C♯                        A♭
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
C♯                                     F♯   C♯   A♭
She began to cry when you said goodbye,
F♯                         B♭m                              
And sank into your dreams.                      
                                                              
C♯                                                           
Pancho was a bandit boys,                        
A♭                                                            
His horse was fast as polished steel.
F♯
Wore his gun outside his pants
C♯                  A♭
For all the honest world to feel.
F♯
Pancho met his match, you know,
      C♯               F♯
On the deserts down in Mexico. 
    C♯                   F♯  C♯   A♭
Nobody heard his dying words,
F♯                            B♭m  
Ah, but that's the way it goes.

F♯
All the Federales say
C♯                       F♯
They could have had him any day,
C♯                      F♯   C♯   A♭
They only let him hang around
F♯                        B♭m   
  Out of kindness, I suppose

C♯
Lefty, he can't sing the blues
A♭
All night long like he used to.
F♯
The dust that Pancho bit down south
C♯           A♭
Ended up in Lefty's mouth.
F♯
The day they laid poor Pancho low,
C♯               F♯
Lefty split for Ohio
C♯                       F♯      C♯   A♭
Where he got the bread to go,
F♯                       B♭m  
There ain't nobody knows

F♯
All the Federales say
C♯                      F♯
They could have had him any day,
C♯                       F♯    C♯   A♭
They only let him slip a - way
F♯                       B♭m
  Out of kindness, I suppose

Solo (3:10)

C♯
Well the poets tell how Pancho fell,
A♭
And Lefty's living in a cheap hotel.
F♯
The desert's quiet, and Cleveland's cold,
C♯                A♭
So the story ends we're told.
F♯
Pancho needs your prayers, it's true,
C♯                  F♯
But save a few for Lefty too.
C♯                          F♯   C♯  A♭
He just did what he had to do,
F♯                        B♭m  
And now he's growing old

F♯
A few gray Federales say
C♯                      F♯
They could have had him any day,
C♯                       F♯   C♯  A♭
They only let him go so wrong
F♯                         B♭m    
  Out of kindness, I suppose

F♯
A few gray Federales say
C♯                          F♯
They could have had them any day,
C♯                   F♯  C♯   A♭
We only let 'em go so wrong
F♯                           B♭m
  Out of kindness, I suppose

F♯ C♯
