Verse 1
D
I'd play the Red River Valley
A Bm
And he'd sit out in the kitchen and cry
G Em D Bm
Run his fingers through seventy years of livin'
G Em A
And wonder, Lord, has every well I drilled run dry
A D
We were friends, me and this old man
Chorus
Bm G
Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Bm G D/F# Em Asus4 A
Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 2
D
He's a drifter and a driller of oil wells
A Bm
And an old school man of the world
G Em D Bm
He'd let me drive his car when he's too drunk to
G Em A
And he'd wink and give me money for the girls
A D
And our lives was like some old western movie
Repetition: Chorus

Like desperadoes waiting for a train

Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 3
D
From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him
A Bm
To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe

And there was old men with beer guts and dominoes
G Em A
Lyin' about their lives while they'd play
A D
And I was just a kid, they called me Sidekick

Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 4
D
One day I looked up and he's pushin' eighty
A Bm
Brown tobacco stains all down his chin

To me he's one of the heroes of this country
G Em A
So why's he all dressed up like them old men
A D
Drinkin' beer and playin' Moon and Forty Two

Like desperadoes waiting for a train
Verse 5

The day before he died I went to see him
A Bm
I was grown and he was almost gone

So we just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen
G Em A
And sang another verse to that old song
A D
Come on, Jack, that son of a bitch is coming
Chorus
Bm G
Like desperadoes waiting for a train

Like desperadoes waiting for a train

Like desperadoes waiting for a train
