Chords for Jimmy Webb - The Highwayman

[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I was [Eb] a [Bb] highwayman _ _ [Eb] along the coach [Ab] roads I did [Cm] ride
_ With _ [Bb] _
a [Ab] sword and pistol [Eb] [Bb] by my side
_ _ _ _ [Fm] _ Many [Ab] a young man [Cm] [Dm] lost to bubbles [Bb] _ [Ab] to my train
[Eb] _ _ _ [Fm] _ Many [Eb] a soldier left [Dm] his [Bb] lifeblood [Ab] on my [Eb] bed
They _ [Cm] _ finally [Bb]
hung me [Eb] in the spring [Bb] of [Eb] 25 _ _
But _ _ I was still [Fm]
alive
_ _ _ I _ _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] _ was [F] a sailor _ [Eb] and I was [Ab] born upon [Cm] the tide
_ And [C] _ [Bb] _
with [Ab] a sea [Eb] I did [Bb] abide _
_ I _ _ [Fm] _ [Ab] sailed a spoon around [Dm] the Horn [Bb] of [C] Mexico
_ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ [Fm] I went [Ab] aloft to pearl [Dm] the [Bb] mainsail [Ab] in a boat
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ And when [Bb] the yards broke [Ab] off they say that [Bb] I got [Eb] killed _
_ But _ _ I'm a-living [Fm] _
still
_ _ Perhaps I always will, I don't know
_ [C] _ I [Bb] was a dam builder _ _ [Gm] across [Eb] the river deep [Cm] and wide
_ [Fm] _ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] _
Where steel [Ab] and [Eb] water did [Bb] collide
A _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] place called Boulder on [Dm] the [Bb] wild [Ab] Colorado _
I _ [Eb] _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] slipped and fell into [Dm] the wet concrete [C] below
[Cm] _
_ _ _ _ _ They [Bb] buried me [Eb] in that great tomb [Bb] that knows [Eb] no sound
_ _ _ But I'm still [Fm]
around
_ _ _ _ _ Seems like it all goes round [Eb] and round
_ [Bb]
Round and round [Cm] and round
[Bb] _ _
Said [Eb] _ _ _ Dozen, oh and here we go _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ [Eb] I'll _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [C] _ _ fly [Bb] a starship _ [Eb] _ across the universe [Cm] divine
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ And when I [Ab] [Eb] reach the other [Bb] side _ _ _
_ _ [Fm] I'll [Ab] find a place [Cm] to rest [Dm] my spirit [Bb] _ [Fm] if [Ab] I can
_ [Eb] Perhaps _ [Fm] _ _ [Eb] I may become [Bb] a highwayman [C] again
_ [Bb] _ [Fm] _ _
[C] _ Or I [Bb] may simply [Eb] be a single [Bb] _ [Eb] _ dropper _ _ _
But something will [Fm] remain _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I'll be back [Eb] again, _ _ [Bb] I'll be back [Cm] _
again
[Bb] _ Yes I [Eb] will, _ _ _ oh and here we go _
But _ _ we'll all [Bb] be back [Eb]
again
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ Yes [Eb] we will, _ _ oh _ [Fm] and _ [Gm] _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ here we [Bb] _
_ [Eb] go
[Bb] _ _ But we'll all [Fm] be _ back _ again
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
