Desperados Waiting for a Train by The Highwaymen Guitar Chords
Desperados Waitin’ For a Train Guy Clark
I played the Red River Valley C 2 G 2
He’d sit in the kitchen and cry
Run his fingers through seventy years of livin’ ~
“I wonder, Lord, has every well I’ve drilled gone dry?”
We were friends, me and this old man
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4 A 2 3 4
He was a drifter, a driller of oil wells C 2 G 2
A teacher, a schoolman of the world 2 3 4
Let me drive his car when he was too drunk to ~
He’d wink and give me money for the girls
And our lives were like some old Western movie
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4 A 2 3 4
From the time that I could walk he’d take me with him C 2 G 2
To a bar called the Green Frog Caf-e 2 3 4
Where old men with beer guts and dominoes ~
Would lie about their lives while they played
And I was just a kid, they all called ”Sidekick”
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4 A 2 3 4
Well, one day I looked up and he’s pushin’ eighty C 2 G 2
Brown tobacco stains all down his chin 2 3 4
To me he was a hero of this country ~
So why’s he all dressed up like them old men
Just drinkin’ beer and playin’ Moon and Forty-two
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4 A 2 3 4
The day before he died I went to see him C 2 G 2
I was grown and he was almost gone 2 3 4
But we closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen ~
And sang another verse to that old song
(spoken) Come on, Jack, that son-of-a-gun is comin’
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4
Like desperados waitin’ for a train 2 3 4 Bm end
