A#               D#          G#       F
Watching the universe at the end of another day
Fatalistic ships from a distant shore
In the back of my mind, I could see she was standing there
Like the feeling you have when you've been there before

C                    F
She was a gypsy woman
She was as cold as the day, yeah
She said I'd got it coming
And then she took me away, yeah

D
She took me through
the shadows of her sunken dream
I thought it's over for me,
she wasn't all she seemed

E
She took my hand and then she started to speak
Dm
She told me she'd had the call
E
With eyes of fire that were burning my soul
D
She looked into her crystal ball

C#m
She read my fortune then she read my mind
C
She didn't like my thoughts at all
E
She showed me shadows, a specter of life
D
My soul just wanted to scream

E
She stared so deeply into my eyes
D
That's when I fell into a dream
C#m
When I awoke in bed she lay beside me
C
And as she read me with her eyes, she said

Chorus:
Am                 F              Am
So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now
Am                 F              E
So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now, now, now

Gypsy woman you're the devil in drag
You are the queen of all hell
You took my body, now you're wasting my soul
You've got me under your spell

And as the sun shines on another day
You're gonna take my mind as well, it's over

Chorus:
So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now
So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now
So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now
So you wanna be a gypsy
Gypsy, gypsy
Gypsy, gypsy
