INTRO: D G D G

VERSE 1:

D G D

Oh my word, what does it mean

D G D

Is it love or is it me

D A

That makes me change so suddenly

Bm G D C

Looking out, feeling free

VERSE 2:

D G D

I sit here lying in my bed

D G D

Wondering what it was I'd said

D A

That made me think I'd lost my head

Bm G C

When I know I lost my heart instead

CHORUS:

C G D Em

So won't you please read my signs, be a gypsy

G D Em

Tell me what I hope to find deep within me

G D Bm G D

Because you can find my mind, please be with me

SOLO (use verse chords)

VERSE 3:

D G D

Of all the better things I've heard

D G D

Loving you has made the words

D A

And all the rest seem so absurd

Bm G C

'Cause in the end it all comes out I'm sure

CHORUS:

C G D Em

So won't you please read my signs, be a gypsy

G D Em

Tell me what I hope to find deep within me

G D Bm G D

Because you can find my mind, please be with me

ENDING: D G D G D G D

in Clapton as well.
