      G                                                
"We told him our tale; And of these we had many;  
 Am                         D7 
Some of them True; Some of them invented;  
   G 
And the gentleman confessed; That his life was quite dismal;  
 Am                     G 
Conceding we live better lives;  


       Bm           Am 
And the sad gypsy sang for his  
Bm          Am         Bm      Am       G 
bottle of wine; And I sang along for mine". 


      G                                                
"His lips touched the skin of the woman we spoke of;  
     Am                                D7                       
His coats (??) are the colours of the times we had lived in;  
     G                                                         
And his mind caught the magnet of the places we've been to;  
     Am                      G           
And we saw that he wasn't deprived;  


          Bm         Am               
Then the sad gypsy sang for his  
Bm         Am        Bm       Am      G                      
bottle of wine; And I sang along for mine; 


Solo: G Am D7 G Am G 


      Bm           Am 
Then the sad gypsy sang for his  
Bm         Am       Bm        A        G                   
bottle of wine; And I sang along for mine". 


   G                                                                       
"Belinda she danced on her own in the shadows;  
  Am                          D7                                           
The gentleman pretended that he didn't love her;  
    G                                             
And we played our roles; we saw the sun rising,  
    Am                    G        
laughing at us and our lives;  

                              
       Bm           Am 
And the sad gypsy sang for his  
Bm          Am         Bm      Am       G 
bottle of wine; And I sang along for mine"  

G    Am     D7      G 
     Oh Yeah, mmm, mmm".
