Bm Bm Bm Bm |
Bm A |
I was a highwayman |
A G Bm A |
Along the coach roads I did ride |
G D A Em |
With sword and pistol by my side |
Em Bm |
Many a young girl lost her |
A G Em |
Baubles to my trade |
Bm A |
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood |
G Bm |
On my blade |
A |
They finally hung me in the |
G A D |
Spring of twenty-five |
G A Bm |
But I am still alive |
Bm A |
I was a sailor |
G Bm A |
I was born upon the tide |
G D A Em |
And with the sea I did abide |
Bm |
I sailed a schooner round |
A G Em |
The horn to Mexico |
Bm |
I went aloft and furled the |
A G Bm |
Mainsail in a blow |
Bm A |
And when the yards broke off |
G A D |
They said that I got killed |
G A Bm |
But I am living still |
Bm A |
I was a dam builder across |
G Bm A |
The river deep and wide |
G |
Where steel and water |
D A Em |
Did collide |
Em Bm |
A place called Boulder on |
A G Em |
The wild Colorado |
Bm |
I slipped and fell into the |
A G Bm |
Wet concrete below |
A |
They buried me in that great |
G A D |
Tomb that knows no sound |
G A |
But I am still around |
A D |
Yes I'll always be around |
A/C# Bm |
And around and around and |
A G |
Around and around |
D/F# Em G A D Bm |
Around |
Bridge: |
A G Bm Bm x2 |
Bm A |
I fly a starship across the |
G Bm A |
Universe divide |
G D A Em |
And when I reach the other side |
Bm |
I'll find a place to rest |
A G Em |
My spirit if I can |
Bm A |
Perhaps I may become a highwayman |
G Bm |
Again |
Bm A G |
Or I may simply be a single |
A D |
Drop of rain |
G A |
But I will remain and I'll |
D |
Be back again |
A/C# Bm A |
And again and again and again |
G D/F# Em |
And again and again |
