VERSE

I was a highwayman

Along the coach

roads I did ride With

Sword and pistol by my side

Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade

Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade

The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five

But I am still alive

VERSE

I was a sailor

I

was borne upon the tide

And with the sea I did abide

I sailed a schooner 'round the

Horn to Mexico

I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow

And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed

But I am living still

VERSE

I was a dam builder

Across the

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 great tomb that knows no sound

But I am still around

CHORUS

I'll always be around

and around and around and around and

and around and around and

| A# | D# |

VERSE

I fly a starship across

the

universe divine

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

CHORUS

Or

I may simply be a single drop of rain

But I will remain

And I'll be back again and again and again and again and again and again

And I'll be back again and again and again and again and again and again
