Johnny Cash - Highwayman
מחבר ומלחין: Jimmy Webb
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
|
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
|
