Subject: CRD: Gypsy Girl by Wet Wet Wet

Title: "Gypsy Girl"

Band: "Wet Wet Wet"

Transcription: "Mungo Henning"

I think that the following track by Wet Wet Wet

off their "Picture This" album was an excellent example

of acoustic guitar playing. Hope I heard the words

right: E&OE. I also scrimped on the "la la la" bit :-)

Intro: G C G C

G

Ten years before my time

C

I sang a song to a friend of mine

D G [D* C G]

'bout a girl working for a dime

G

I didn't know that gypsy girl

C

but I knew about her kind of thrill

D G

Her love was cheap and always up for sale

C D Em

ooh picture this, I was alone

D

but when I fell in love

C G

I was alone... ooh with my gypsy girl

[little run: G C G D* C G

The D* is a plain C chord up two frets to make a D. Play it fast

enough and it sounds okay. ]

G

Now a gypsy lady lost her soul

C

and she's so scared of growin' old

D

but words don't age for me

G

they turn to gold

G

Gypsy girl with raven hair

C

holds my open(?) to the air

D G

she's the one that never seems to care....

C D Em

ooh picture this, I not alone

D

but when I sing a song

C G

I'm not alone... with my gypsy girl

with my gypsy girl

la la la la la la, la la la la la la.....

C D Em

ooh picture this, I'm not alone

D

but when I sing your song

C G

I'm not alone... with my gypsy girl

My gypsy girl
