Highwayman. Sung By The Highwaymen (Open Chords)
Am I was a G highwayman, along the F coach roads I did Am ride
G Sword and F pistol C by my G side
Dm Many a Am young maid lost her G baubles to my F trade
Dm Many a Am soldier shed his G lifeblood on my F blade
Am The bastards G hung me in the F spring of G twenty C five
Am But I am F still G alive
Am I was a G sailor, I was F born upon the Am tide
G With the F sea I C did G abide
Dm I sailed a Am schooner round the G horn of Mexi F co
Dm I went Am aloft and furled the G main sail in a F blow
Am And when the G yards broke off they F say that G I got C killed
Am But I am F living G still
Am I was a G dam builder, across a F river deep and Am wide
G Where steel and F water C did co G llide
Dm A place called Am Boulder on the G wild Color F ado
Dm I slipped and Am fell into the G wet concrete be F low
Am They buried G me in that dark F tomb that G knows no C sound
Am But I am F still a G round
G I'll always be C around, and C a Em round, and Am around, and G around, and F around .. F G C
Am I'll fly a G starship across the F universe di Am vide
G And when I F reach the C other G side
Dm I'll find a Am place to rest my G spirit if I F can
Dm Perhaps I Am may become a G highwayman F again
Am Or I may G simply be a F single G drop of C rain
Am But I F will rem G ain
[Outro]
G And I'll be back ag C ain, and C a Em gain, and Am again, and G again, and F again... F G C
