D5
The wind was a torrent of darkness

Bb5        C5       D5
among the ghastly trees

D5
the moon was a ghostly galleon

Bb5          C5           D5
tossed upon the cloudly seas

G5           C5         F5
The road was ribbon of moonlight

D5       Bb5     C5
over the purple moor

         G5     C5        F5
when the highwayman came riding,

D5   Bb5   C5
riding, riding

G5         C5        F5
the highwayman came riding 

   D5     Bb5      G5
up to the old inn door
