(1)Tell me gypsy can you see me in your crystal ball
(2)I came to see you once before one hundred years ago
C D Bm7
I’m asking you what can I do my back’s against the
wall
You took my hand and broke the spell that should
have let me go
Em Em\D Am C D
B7
And I can’t hold on much longer so I’ve come to you
my friend
But my years have gone so slowly so I’m hear again
my friend
C D Em
For now my life seems at an end
For now my life seems at an end
