[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
(Willie Nelson)
Bm A G Bm
I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
A G D A
Sword and pistol by my side
Em Bm A G
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Em Bm A G
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
Bm A G A D
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty five
Bm G A
But I am still alive
[Verse 2]
(Kris Kristofferson)
Bm A G Bm
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
A G D A
With the sea I did abide
Em Bm A G
I sailed a schooner round the horn of Mexico
Em Bm A G
I went aloft and furled the main sail in a blow
Bm A G A D
And when the yards broke off they say that I got killed
Bm G A
But I am living still
[Verse 3]
(Waylon Jennings)
Bm A G Bm
I was a dam builder, across a river deep and wide
A G D A
Where steel and water did collide
Em Bm A G
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
Em Bm A G
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
Bm A G A D
They buried me in that gray tomb that knows no sound
Bm G A
But I am still around
[Bridge]
(All)
D D/C# Bm A G D/F#
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around...
Em G A D
[Verse 4]
(Johnny Cash)
Bm A G Bm
I'll fly a starship across the universe divide
A G D A
And when I reach the other side
Em Bm A G
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Em Bm A G
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Bm A G A D
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
Bm G A
But I will remain
[Outro]
(All)
D D/C# Bm A G D/F#
And I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again, and again...
Em G A D
