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.
