C F C GShe began to cry when you said goodbye,
F Am G - CAnd sank into your dreams,
(verse 2)
C GPancho was a bandit boys, his horse was fast as polished steel,
FHe wore his gun outside his pants,
C GFor all the honest world to feel,
F oi C FPancho met his match you know on the deserts down in Mexico,
C F C G F Am G - FNobody heard his dying words, ah but that's the way it goes,
(chorus)
