Mercenary Song Guitar Tabs by Steve Earle

-- this isn't exactly right but close --

[[ch]G[/ch]] Me and old Bill there we both come from Georgia
Met Hank down in [[ch]D[/ch]] New Mexico [[ch]G[/ch]]
We're [[ch]G[/ch]] bound for Durango to join Pancho Villa
We hear that he's [[ch]D[/ch]] paying in [[ch]G[/ch]] gold

I guess a man's got to do what he's best at
Ain't found nothing better so far
Been called mercenaries and men with no country
Just soldiers in search of a war

CHORUS

We're [[ch]C[/ch]] bound for the border
We're [[ch]G[/ch]] soldiers of fortune
We'll [[ch]D[/ch]] fight for no country
But we'll [[ch]G[/ch]] die for good pay
[[ch]C[/ch]] Under the flag of the [[ch]G[/ch]] greenback dollar
Or the peso down [[ch]D[/ch]] Mexico [[ch]G[/ch]] way

When this way is over, I might go back to Georgia
And settle down quiet somewhere
I'll most likely pack up and head south for Chile
Hear tell there's some trouble down there
