[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]I was a high[G]wayman
Along the [F]coach roads, I did [Am]ride
[G]With sword and pis[F]tol by [C]my sid[G]e
[Dm]Many a young[Am] maid lost her baubl[G]es
to my [F]trade
[Dm]Many a soldi[Am]er shed his life[G]blood
on my [F]blade
[Am]The bastards hung [G]me
in the [F]spring of [G]twenty-[C]five
But [F]I am still al[G]ive[G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]I was a sail[G]or
I was [F]born upon the [Am]tide
[G]And with the sea[F], I did[C] abid[G]e
[Dm]I sailed a schoo[Am]ner 'round the Horn[G]
to Mexi[F]co
[Dm]I went aloft[Am] and furled the main[G]sail
in a [F]blow
[Am]And when the yards[G] broke off
they [F]said that [G]I got k[C]illed
But [F]I am living s[G]till[G]

[Verse 3]
[Am]I was a dam [G]builder
Across I the [F]river deep and [Am]wide
[G]Where steel and wat[F]er did[C] collid[G]e
[Dm]A place called Bould[Am]er
on the [G]wild Colo[F]rado
[Dm]I slipped and fell[Am] into
the [G]wet concrete be[F]low
[Am]They buried me i[G]n that great tomb[F]
that [G]knows [C]no sound
But [F]I am still ar[G]ound
I'll always be
a[C]round and a[G]round
and a[Am]round and a[G]round
and a[F]round and a[Em]round
[Dm][F][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[Am]I fly a star[G]ship
Across I the [F]U niverse div[Am]ide
[G]And when I rea[F]ch the oth[C]er sid[G]e
[Dm]I'll find a plac[Am]e to rest my spiri[G]t
if I [F]can
[Dm]Perhaps I may [Am]become
a [G]highwayman a[F]gain
[Am]Or I may simpl[G]y be
a [F]single [G]drop of [C]rain
[F]But I will re[G]main
I'll be back a[C]gain and a[G]gain
and a[Am]gain and a[G]gain
and a[F]gain and a[Em]gain
[Dm][F][G][C]
