[VERSE]
[Em]I was a [D]highwayman, along the coach roads I did [Em]ride,
With sword and pistol by my s[D]ide.
[Am]Many a y[Em]oung maid lost her[D] baubles to my [Em]trade.
[Am]Many a s[Em]oldier lost his [D]lifeblood on my b[Em]lade.
[Em]The bastards hung me in the s[D]pring of twenty-five:
But [C]I am still [D]alive.

[VERSE]
[Em]I was a s[D]ailor, I was born upon the [Em]tide.
And with the sea I did a[D]bide.
[Am]I sailed a [Em]schooner round the H[D]orn to M[Em]exico.
[Am]I went al[Em]oft and furled the m[D]ainsail in a [Em]blow.
[Em]And when the yards broke off, they [D]said that I got killed:
But [C]I am living [D]still.

[VERSE]
[Em]I was a da[D]m builder across the river deep an[Em]d wide;
Where steel and water did [D]collide.
[Am]A place called B[Em]oulder on the [D]wild Colo[Em]rado,
[Am]I slipped and f[Em]ell into the [D]wet concrete [Em]below.
[Em]They buried me in that great [D]tomb that knows no sound:
But [C]I am still [D]around.

[BRIDGE]
[D]I'll always be a[G]round,.
And [D]around and a[C]round and [D]around and [G]around.

[VERSE]
[Em]I fly a stars[D]hip across the Universe [Em]divide.
And when I reach the other [D]side,
[Am]I'll find a [Em]place to rest my s[D]pirit if I [Em]can.
[Am]Perhaps I [Em]may become a [D]highwayman [Em]again.
[Em]Or I may simply be a single d[D]rop of rain;
[C]But I will [D]remain.

[OUTRO]
[D]And I'll be back a[G]gain,
And [D]again and [C]again and a[D]gain and [G]again.
