Highwayman

(Willie)
Am Am G G F F Am Am
I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
G G F F G G
With sword and pistol by my side
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
Am Am G G F F G G
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
F F G G
But I am still alive

(Kris)
Am Am G G F F Am Am
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
G G F F G G
And with the sea I did abide
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
I sailed a schooner round the Horn of Mexico
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
Am Am G G F F G G
And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed
F F G G
But I am living still

(Waylon)
Am Am G G F F Am Am
I was a dam builder, across the river deep and wide
G G F F G G
Where steel and water did collide
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
A A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
Am Am G G F F G G
They buried me into the great tomb that knows no sound
F F G G
But I am still around

(Johnny)
Am Am G G F F Am Am
I fly a starship, across the universe divide
G G F F G G
And when I reach the other side
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Dm Dm Am Am G G F F
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Am Am G G F F G G
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
F F G G
But I will remain
G G C C Am Am G G F F Em Em Dm Dm
And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again.....
