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