[G] [D]
Those are the thirsty years you drove the big [E] herds to feed
[A] I tried to [D] forget the miles we rode the Spanish down [A] in two
[E] [D] Gets to be a silent water beach when all the [E] searchers in
[D] And never harm a child's name [A] to his [E] mandolin
The [D]
old talk, the old ways and the dealing [E] of our days
[D]
Said it was Johnny Mary's fault, the singing [E] songs they
[D] And the talking man was this, he was [E] talking on the [A] day
[E] [D] Of those old things he said [A] to his [E] mandolin
But [D]

[B]
[D] we had to stand and try to get a hand to stop [E] the man
For [D] the hands that gave him to a child to kill so many [E]
men
It [D] happened long ago before the roads [E] were long red
And [D] the night before it swung his [A] tongue to his [E]
mandolin
Well [D] it came out in the morning sun and the man had not [A]
[E] awoken
[D] And we lured him down in the cold plain, stuck him [E] across the woods
[D] And later he wrote to his kinfolk to tell them [A] where he'd [E] been
[D] And they shipped him out to Mexico [A] on all his [E]
mandolins
