Tom: Bm Bm [Verse] Bm A G I was a highwayman Bm On the coach roads I did ride A G A With a sword and pistol by my side Em D A G Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade Em D A G Bm Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade A G A The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five D A But I'm still alive [Verse] Bm A G I was a sailor Bm A And I was born upon the tide G A And with the sea I did abide. Em D A G I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico Em D A G Bm I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow A G A When the yards broke off they said that I got killed D A But I'm living still [Verse] Bm A G I was a dam builder Bm A Across this river deep and wide G A Em Where steel and water did collide D A G Em In a place called Boulder on the wild Colorado D A G Bm I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below A G A They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound D A But I'm still around Bm A G And I'll always be around, and around, and around [Verse] Bm A G I flew a starship Bm A Across the universe divide G A Em And when I reach the other side D A G Em I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can D A G Bm Perhaps I may become a highwayman again A G A Or I may simply be a single drop of rain D A But I will remain Bm A G And I'll come back again, and again, and again [Outro] Bm A G And again, and again, and again
