This is how it is played on the record Fingerpick it with an Alt-Bass patern The Highwaymen Intro: Bm7 Verse 1: (Willie Nelson)

^Bm7I was a highway^Aman, along the ^Gcoach roads I did ^Bm7ride, ^ASword and ^Gpistol by my ^Aside, ^EmMany a ^Dyoung maid lost he^Ar baubles to^Em my trade, ^EmMany a ^Dsoldier shed his ^Emlifeblood on my ^Ablade, ^Bm7The basterds ^Ahung me in the ^Gspring of ^Bm725, ^DBut I am still a^Alive

Verse 2: (Kris Kristopherson) I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide, With the sea I did abide, I sailed a schooner round the horn of Mexico, I went aloft and furled the main sail in a blow, And when the yard broke off they say that I got killed, But I am living still Verse 3: (Waylon Jennings) I was a dam builder, across a river long and wide, Where steel and water did collide, A place called boulder on the wild Colorado, I slipped and fell on the wet concrete below, They buried me in that gray tomb that knows no sounds, But I am still around, Bridge Thingy: (All)

I'll always be a^Dround, and a^D/C#round, and a^Bm7round, and a^Around, and a^Ground^D/F# ^Em Verse 4: (Johnny Cash) I'll fly a starship across the universe divide, 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, Or I may simply be a single drop of rain, But I will remain,

Outro: (All) (same chords as bridge) And I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again, and again i cant take credit for this- but ug needs it.-tongue untied pm me at asociallead@yahoo.com for questions/comments
