The White Buffalo – Highway Man (Guitar)

Bm      A
I was a highwayman

G                        Bm
On the coach roads I did ride

A              G           A
With sword and pistol by my side

Em      D                  A            G
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade

Em      D              A              G
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade

Bm           A             G                   A
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five

D             A
But I am still alive.

Bm      A
I was a sailor

G                       Bm
And I was born upon the tide

A             G                A
And with the sea I did abide.

Em           D                A         G
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico

Em           D                A          G
I went aloft to furled the mainsail in a blow

Bm           A                   G                   A
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed

D             A
But I'm living still.

Bm      A
I was a dam builder

G                          Bm
Across this river deep and wide

A               G               A
Where steel and water did collide

Em                D             A          G
In a place called Boulder on the wild Colorado

Em            D                    A                G
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below

Bm           A                  G                  A
Then they buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound

D             A
But I am still around

               Bm           A           G           A
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around

Bm      A 
I flew a star ship

G                         Bm
Across the universe divide

A           G                  A
And when I reach the other side

Em           D               A             G       
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can

Em           D          A            G
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again

Bm       A           G                 A  
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain

D          A
But I will remain

                 Bm         A          G           A
And I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again
