Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
I was a high (G major) wayman
Along the coach (F major) roads, I did ride (A minor)
(G major) With sword and (F major) pistol by (C major) my side (G major) (D minor)
Many a young (A minor) maid lost her
(G major) baubles to my trade (F major) (D minor)
Many a sol (A minor) dier shed
his lifeblood (G major) on my blade (F major)
(A minor) The bastards (G major) hung me in
the spring (F major) of (G major) twenty- five (C major)
(F major) But I am still alive

Verse 2
I was a sailor (G major)
I was (F major) borne upon the (A minor) tide
(G major) And with the sea, (F major) I did abide (G major)
(D minor) I sailed a schooner (A minor) round
the (G major) Horn to Mexico
(F major) (D minor) I went aloft (A minor) and furled
the (G major) mainsail in a blow (F major)
(A minor) And when the yard (G major) s broke
off they (F major) said that (G major) I got (C major) killed
But (F major) I am living still

Verse 3
I was a dam (G major) builder
Across the river (F major) deep and (A minor) wide
(G major) Where steel and (F major) wa ter
did (C major) col (G major) lide (D minor)
A place called (A minor) Boulder on
the wild (G major) Color (F major) ado
(D minor) I slipped and (A minor) fell into
the wet (G major) concrete below
(F major) (A minor) They buried me (G major) in that great
tomb (F major) that (G major) knows no (C major) sound
But (F major) I am still around (G major)
I'll always be around and around (C major) and around and
(G major) around and around (A minor) and (G major) around

(A minor) I fly a star (G major) ship
Across the Uni (F major) verse di (A minor) vide
(G major) And when I reach (F major) the other side (G major)
(D minor) I'll find a place (A minor) to rest my spirit (G major) if I can (F major)
(D minor) Perhaps I may (A minor) become
a high (G major) wayman again (F major)
(A minor) Or I may simply (G major) be a single (F major) drop (G major) of rain (C major)
(F major) But I will remain (G major)
I'll be back again (C major) and (G major) again and again and
(A minor) again and (G major) again and (F major) again
