Chords for The Highwaymen - Highwayman (Live at Farm Aid 1993)

_ It's great to be here, thank you.
We've had a pretty good run, these next guys and me. _
[Ab] These other three fellas, we've been across the [N] country and around the world together.
And there's still [Ebm] no one that I'd rather [D] introduce than [Eb] my musical [E] comrades.
[Gm] Chris [Ebm] Gustafsson, Waylon Jennings, [G] and a [F] baby-faced kid from Texas named Willie Nelson.
They call us the [Eb] Highwaymen.

_ [Bb] _ [B] _ _ [A] _ _
_ [G] the coach [Bm] road I did ride, _
_ _ [A] A sword [G] and pistol by [A] my side.
[Gbm] _ [Em] Many [Bm] a young man lost [A] her problems to my [G] grade. _
_ _ [Em] Many a [Bm] soldier shed his [A] life blood on my [G] blade. _ _ _
[Bm] Bastards [A] hung me in the [G] spring of twenty [A]-five,
[D] _ But I am still [G] alive. _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] I was [A] a sailor,
I [G] was born upon [Bm] the tide,
_ _ [A] And with [G] the sea [A] I did fight.
_ _ [Em] I [Bm] sailed a school [A] around the lawn of [G] Mexico. _
_ _ [Em] I [Bm] went along the [A] fur of the mainsail [G] of the boat.
_ [Bm] _
And [A] when the yards broke [G] off they [A] said that I [D] got killed.
_ [G] But I never [A] ever said that. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ [A] I was a bandit,
_ [G] Across a river [Bm] deep and wide,
_ _ [A] Where [G] steel and [D] water [A] did collide.
_ _ [Em] _
[Bm] A place called Boulder [A] Road, the wild, [G] hard bottom.
_ _ [Em] I [Bm] slipped and fell [A] into the wet [G] concrete below.
_ _ [Bm] _
They [A] buried me in [G] that great [Am] tomb that [D] knows no sound.
_ [G] But I am [A] still around.
_ _ Always [D] be around, and [A] around, [Bm] and around, [D] and around, [G] and around, [D] and around, [Em] and around.
_ _ [G] _ [A] _
[D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] I'll [A] fly a starship,
_ [G] Across the universe divide.
[Bm] _ _ _ [A] And when [G] I reach the [A] other side,
_ [G] _
[Em] I'll [Bm] find a place to rest [A] my spirit [G] if I can.
_ _ [Em] Perhaps [Bm] I may become [A] a highway [G] mannequin,
_ [Bm] _ Or I [A] may simply be [G] a [A] single [D] drop of rain. _
[G] But I will [A] remain, _ _
And I'll be [D] back again, [A] and again, [Bm] and again, [D] and again, [G] and again, [D] and again, [Em] and again. _ _ _
