[Am7]I was a highway[G]man, along the [F]coach roads I did [Am7]ride,
[G]Sword and [F]pistol by my [G]side,
[Dm]Many a [Am]young maid lost her b[G]aubles to my t[F]rade,
[Dm]Many a [Am]soldier shed his l[G]ifeblood on my [F]blade,
[Am7]The bastards [G]hung me in the [F]spring of [Am7]25,
[C]But I am still a[G]live...

Verse 2 - (Kris Kristopherson)

I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide,
With the sea I did abide,
I sailed a schooner round the horn of Mexico,
I went aloft and furled the main sail in a blow,
And when the yard broke off they said that I got killed,
But I am living still...


Verse 3 - (Waylon Jennings)

I was a dam builder, across a river deep and wide,
Where steel and water did collide,
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado,
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below,
They buried me in that gray tomb that knows no sounds,
But I am still around,
I'll always be a[C]round, and a[C/B]round, and a[Am7]round, and a[G]round, and a[F]round[C/E]     [Dm]

Verse 4 - (Johnny Cash)

I'll fly a starship across the universe divide,
And when I reach the other side,
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can,
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again,
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain,
But I will remain...
And I'll be ba[C]ck again, an[C/B]d again, and[Am7] again, and [G]again, and a[F]gain [C/E]     [Dm]
