Verse
A#
Those other years, the dusty years
C
When we drove the big herds through
A#
I tried to forget the miles we rode
C
And Spanish Johnny too
[Verse 2]
A# C
He'd sit beside a water ditch when all his herd was in
A# F C
And he'd never harm a child but sing to his mandolin
A#
He sang the old songs, the old ways,
C
and the dealins' of our game
A# C
Spanish Johnny seldom spoke, but sang songs of Spain
[Verse 3]
A#
And his talk with men was vicious talk
C
When he was drunk on gin
A# F C
Ah, but those were golden things he said to his mandolin
[GUITAR SOLO]
[vERSE 4]
A#
We had to stand, we had to judge,
C
We had to stop him then
A# C
For the hand so gentle to a child had killed so many men
[vERSE 5]
A# C
He died a hard death long ago before the roads came in
A# F C
And the night before he swung he sung to his mandolin
A#
Well, we carried him out in the mornin' light
C
a man who done no good
A#
And we lowered him down in the cold cold clay
C
Stuck in a cross of wood
A#
And a letter he wrote to his kinfolk
C
To tell them where he'd been
A#
And we shipped it on down to Mexico,
F C A#
Along with his mandolin
