Am7           Bm7
Tell me gypsy can you see me
Em
In your crystal ball
    C                D
I'm asking you what can I do
    Bm7
My back's against the wall
Em     Em/D               Am7
And I can't hold on much longer
C        D               B7
So I've come to you my friend
C           D               Em D/F# G Am Em
For now my life seems at an end

I came to see you once before
One hundred years ago
You took my hand and broke the spell
That should have let me go
But my years have gone so slowly
So I'm here again my friend
For now my life is at an end
