Am G F Am
I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride
G F Am G
With sword and pistol by my side
Dm Am G F7M
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Dm Am G F7M
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
Am G F G C
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
F G
But I am still alive.
Am G F Am
I was a sailor. I was born upon the tide
G F Am G
And with the sea I did abide.
Dm Am G F7M
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico
Dm Am G F7M
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
Am G F G C
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
F G
But I am living still.
Am G F Am
I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
G F Am G
Where steel and water did collide
Dm Am G F7M
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
Dm Am G F7M
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
Am G F G C
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
F G C C/A# Am
But I am still around..I'll always be around..and around and around and
Am/G F F/E Dm F GE
around and around
Am G F Am
I fly a starship across the Universe divide
G F Am G
And when I reach the other side
Dm Am G F7M
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Dm Am G F7M
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Am G F G C
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
F G
But I will remain
Instrumental
F G C
And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again..
