(Willie)
BmI was a hiAghwayman. GAlong the coach roads AI did Bmride
A With sword and Gpistol by my Aside
Em Many a Bmyoung maid lost her Abaubles to my Gtrade
Em Many a Bmsoldier shed his Alifeblood on my Gblade
Bm The bastards Ahung me, in the Gspring Aof twenty-Dfive
G But I am still Aalive.

(Kris)
Bm I was a Asailor. I was Gborn Aupon the Bmtide
A And with the Gsea I did Aabide.
Em I sailed a Bmschooner round the AHorn to GMexico
Em I went aBmloft and furled the Amainsail in a Gblow
Bm And when the Ayards broke off, they Gsaid that AI got kDilled
But GI am living Astill.

(Waylon)
Bm I was a Adam builder. Across the Griver deep and Bmwide.
A Where steel and Gwater did Acollide.
Em A place called BmBoulder on the Awild ColoGrado
Em I slipped and Bmfell into the Awet concrete belGow
Bm They buried Ame, in that great Gtomb that kAnows no Dsound
But GI am still Aaround.

(Johnny)
Bm I fly a Astarship across the GUniverse divBmide
A And when I Greach the other Aside
Em I'll find a Bmplace to rest my Aspirit if I Gcan
Em Perhaps I Bmmay become a Ahighwayman aGgain
Bm Or I may Asimply be a Gsingle Adrop of Drain
GBut I, will remaAin
And I'll be back Dagain, and Bmagain
A G F#m Em B>C#>D
and again and again and again..
