Bm

Bm      A
I was a highwayman
G                        Bm
On the coach roads I did ride
A         G     D      A
With sword and pistol by my side
Em*     D*                 A*           G*
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Em*     D*             A*             G*
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
Bm           A              G                 A
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
D             A
But I am still alive.


Bm      A
I was a sailor
G                       Bm
And I was born upon the tide
A         G     D      A
And with the sea I did abide.
Em*          D*               A*         G*
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico
Em*          D*               A*         G*
I went aloft to furled the mainsail in a blow
Bm           A                   G                   A
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
D             A
But I'm living still.


Bm      A
I was a dam builder
G                          Bm
Across this river deep and wide
A         G        D         A
Where steel and water did collide
Em*               D*            A*         G*
In a place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
Em*            D*            A*            G*
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
Bm           A                    G                  A
Then they buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
D              A
But I am still around
               Bm           A           G           A
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around


Bm~      A~
I flew a starship
G~         A~             Bm
Across the universe divide
A          G        D      A
And when I reach the other side
Em*          D*               A*         G*
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Em*        D*            A*          G*
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Em       D           A               G
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
D          A
But I will remain
                 Bm         A          G           A
And I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again.....

Bm
