The Highwaymen - Highwayman

^Am I was a ^Ghighwayman, along the ^Fcoach roads I did^Am ride ^G With sword and ^Fpistol ^Cby my ^Gside ^Dm Many a ^Amyoung maid lost her ^Gbaubles to my ^Ftrade ^Dm Many a ^Amsoldier shed his ^Glifeblood on my ^Fblade ^Am The bastards ^Ghung me in the ^Fspring of ^Gtwenty-^Cfive But ^FI am still a^Glive

^Am I was a ^Gsailor, I was ^Fborn u^Gpon the ^Amtide ^G With the ^Fsea I ^Cdid a^Gbide ^Dm I sailed a ^Amschooner ‘round the ^Ghorn to Mexi^Fco ^Dm I went a^Amloft to furl the ^Gmain sail in a ^Fblow ^Am And when the ^Gyards broke off they ^Fsaid that ^GI got ^Ckilled But ^FI am living ^Gstill

^Am I was a ^Gdam builder, across a ^Friver deep and ^Amwide ^G Where steel and ^Fwater ^Cdid col^Glide ^Dm A place called ^AmBoulder on the ^Gwild Colora^Fdo ^Dm I slipped and ^Amfell into the ^Gwet concrete be^Flow ^Am They buried me ^Gin that gray ^Ftomb that ^Gknows no ^Csound But ^FI am still a^Ground

I'll always be a^Cround, and a^G/Bround, and a^Amround, and ^Garound And a^Fround, and a^C/Eround, and a^Dmround ^F

^Am I'll fly a ^Gstarship, across the ^Funiverse di^Amvide ^G And when I ^Freach the ^Cother ^Gside ^Dm I'll find a ^Amplace to rest my ^Gspirit if I ^Fcan ^Dm Perhaps I ^Ammay become a ^Ghighwayman a^Fgain ^Am Or I may ^Gsimply be a ^Fsingle ^Gdrop of ^Crain But ^FI will re^Gmain

And I'll be back a^Cgain, and a^G/Bgain, and a^Amgain, and a^Ggain And a^Fgain, and a^C/Egain, and a^Dmgain ^F
