D / / / 2 / / / 3 / / / 4 /
G D
Silver coins that jingle-jangle
A7
Fancy shoes that dance in time
D G D
All the secrets of her dark eyes
A7 D
The lady'd sing a gypsy rhyme
G D
Yellow clover in tangled blossoms
A7
In a meadow silky green
D G D
Where she held me to her bosom
A7 D
Just a boy of seventeen
CHORUS:
G D A7
I recall a gypsy woman, silver spangles in her eyes
D G D
Ivory skin against the moonlight
A7 D
And the taste of life's sweet wine
Verse 2:
Soft breezes blow from fragrant meadows
Stir the darkness in my mind
Oh gentle woman, you sleep beside me
And little know who haunts my mind
Gypsy lady, I hear your laughter
And the dances in my head
While my tender wife and babies
Slumber softly in their beds
(chorus)
