Johnny Cash - Highwayman

^Bm7I was a highway^Aman, along the ^Gcoach roads I did ^Bm7ride, ^ASword and ^Gpistol by my ^Aside, ^EmMany a ^Dyoung maid lost her ^Embaubles to my ^Atrade, ^EmMany a ^Dsoldier shed his ^Emlifeblood on my ^Ablade, ^Bm7The basterds ^Ahung me in the ^Gspring of ^Bm725, ^DBut I am still a^Alive 2: I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide, With the sea I did abide, I sailed a schooner round the horn of Mexico, I went aloft and furled the main sail in a blow, And when the yard broke off they say that I got killed, But I am living still 3: I was a dam builder, across a river long and wide, Where steel and water did collide, A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado, I slipped and fell on the wet concrete below, They buried me in that gray tomb that knows no sounds, But I am still around, BRIDGE: I'll always be a^Dround, and a^D/C#round, and a^Bm7round, and a^Around, and a^Ground^{D/F# Em} 4: I'll fly a starship across the universe divide, And when I reach the other side, I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can, Perhaps I may become a highwayman again, Or I may simply be a single drop of rain, But I will remain,
