The Highwayman Chords by Arbouretum

[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I was a [C] _ highwayman, _ _ along the country roads I did [Dm]
ride,
_ _ _ _ _ [C] My sword and pistol by my _ _ side.
_ _ _ [Gm] Many a [F] young man lost [C] her bubbles to [Bb] my trade, _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] Many a [F] soldier shed his [C] lifeblood on my [Bb] blade. _
_ _ _ _ [D] The bastards [C] hung me in the spring of twenty [F]-five,
_ _ _ _ _ But I am still [C] alive. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ I was [C] a sailor, _ _ I was born upon the [Dm] tide, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] And with the sea I did abide. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] I sailed a [F] _ schooner round the [C] Horn of Mexico,
[Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] I went [F] aloft and furrowed the [C] _ mainsail in a [Bb] blow, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] And when the [C] yards broke off they said that I [F] got killed. _ _
_ _ But I am living [C]
still. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
I was a [C] dam builder, _ _ _ across the river deep and [D] _ wide,
_ _ _ _ _ [C] Where steel and water did _ collide. _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] I played call [F] upholder on the [C] wild _ [Bb] Colorado, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] I slipped and [F] fell into the wet concrete [Bb] below. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] They buried [C] me in that great tomb that knows [F] no sound,
_ _ _ _ But I am still [C] around. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I'll always be [F] around, and [Em] around, and [Dm] around, and [C] around, and [Bb] around, _ and [A] around, and [Gm] around. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
I'll fly [C] a starship _ _ _ across the _ universe [Dm] divide, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] And when I reach the other _ _ side,
_ _ _ _ [Gm] I'll find a [F] place to rest [C] my spirit if I [Bb] can. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ Perhaps I [F] may become a [C] highwayman _ [Bb] again, _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] Or I may [C] simply be a single drop [F] of rain,
_ _ _ But I will [C] remain, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And I'll be back [F] again, and [Em] again, _ and [Dm] again, _ and [C] again,
_ And [Bb] again, _ and [Am] again, and again.
