Verse 1
(A minor) That's something else
I realized, too.
I used to be nervous
when I'd be out in front of an audience,
especially by myself. Then I
realized what my job was.
I was like the guy, you know,
I may be schizophrenic,
but I'll always have each other.
I was that bad.
A fabulous Jimmy Webb song.
I was a (G major) highwayman
Along the (F major) coach roads I did (A minor) ride
(G major) With sword and (F major) pistol by (C major) my (G major) side
Many (D minor) a (A minor) young maid lost her
(G major) baubles to my (F major) trade
(D minor) Many a (A minor) sol dier shed his
lifeblood (G major) on my blade (F major)
(A minor) The bastards hung me
(C major) in the (F major) spring of (G major) twenty -five,
(C major) But (G major) (C major) (F major) I am still
alive. (G major) (Gsus4) (G major)
(A minor) I was a (G major) sailor,
and I was born (F major) upon the tide, (A minor)
An (G major) d with the sea (F major) I (C major) did abide.
(G major) I sailed (D minor) a (A minor) schooner
around the horn (G major) to Mexico
(F major) I (D minor) went aloft (A minor) to furl
the (G major) mainsail in a blow (F major)
And (A minor) when the yard (C major) s broke off
they (F major) say that (G major) I got killed
(C major) But (F major) I'm livin' still (G major) (Gsus4) (G major)
And (A minor) I was a (G major) dam builder
across the river (F major) s deep an (A minor) d wide
(G major) Where steel and (F major) water did (C major) col (G major) lide
A (D minor) place called (A minor) Boulder on
the (G major) wild Colorado (F major) (D minor)
I slipped and fell (A minor) into the
wet (G major) concrete below
(F major) They (A minor) buried me (C major) in that great tomb
(F major) that knows (G major) no (C major) sound
But (G major) (F major) I am still around, (G major)
I guess I'll always be around
(C major) And around, (G major) and around, (A minor) and (C major) around, (A minor) an (C major) d (F major) around,
and around, (C major) and around (D minor) (G major) (C major) (F major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(A minor) I'll fly a star (G major) ship across
the universe (F major) (A minor) divine
And (G major) when I reach (F major) the (C major) other side (G major)
I'll (D minor) find a place (A minor) to rest my
spir (G major) it if I can (F major)
Perhaps (D minor) I may (A minor) become
a (G major) highwayman again
(F major) Or I (A minor) may simply (C major) be
a single (F major) drop (G major) of (C major) rain
But I (F major) will remain (G major)
And I'll be back again, (C major)
and again, (G major) and (A minor) again
And again, (C major) and again, (F major) and again, (C major)
and again (D minor) (G major) (D minor)
(C major) (F major) (G major) (C major) (A minor) (C major)
