[B] I [A] was a highwayman, along [G] the coach roads I [Bm] did ride,
[A] with [G] sword and [D] pistol by [A] my side.
[Em] [Bm] Many a young maid [A] lost her marbles to [G] my trade.
[Bm] Many a soldier shed [A] his lifeblood on [G] my blade.
[Bm] The [A] bastards hung me in [G] the spring [D] of twenty-five, [G] but I am [A] still alive.
[Bm] I [A] was a sailor, I [G] was born [Bm] upon the tide,
[A] with [G] the [D] sea I [A] did abide.
[Em] I [Bm] sailed a schooner [A] round the Horn of [G] Mexico,
[Em] I [Bm] went lofty [A] furled a bansal [G] in a blow.
[Bm] And [A] when the yards broke [G] off they [A] said that [D] I got killed, [G] but I am [A] living still.
[Bm] I [A] was a dam builder, [G] across the river [Bm] deep and wide,
[A] where [G] steel and [D] water [A] did collide.
[Em] A [Bm] place called Boulder [A] on the wild [G] corner of my hood,
[Em] I [Bm] slipped and fell [A] into the wet [G] concrete below.
[Bm] They [Am] buried me in [G] that great [A] tomb that [D] knows no sound, [G] but I am [A] still around.
I'll always [D] be around, [A] around, [Bm] around, [A] around, [G] around.
[D] [Em]
[G] [A] [D]
[B] I'll [A] fly a starship [G] across the universe divine, [Bm]
[A] and when [G] I [D] reach the [A] other side,
[Em] I'll [Bm] find a place to rest [A] my spirit if [G] I can.
[Em] Perhaps [Bm] I may become [A] a highwayman [G] again,
[Bm] or I may [A] simply be [G] a single [A] drop [D] of rain,
[G] but I will [A] remain, and I'll be back [D] again, [A] and again, [Bm] and again, [A] and again, [G] and again, [D] and again.
