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