Verse 1:
Am
I like digging holes and hiding things inside them
When I'll grow old I hope I won't forget to find them
Dm                           F           G              Am
'Cause I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night


Verse 2:
Am
I build a home and wait for someone to tear it down
Then pack it up in boxes, head for the next town running
Dm                           F           G              Am
'Cause I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night


Pre-Chorus:
      Dm
And a thousand times I've seen this road
  F        G
A thousand times

Am
I've got no roots, But my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots, But my home was never on the ground

I've got no roouuh uuuh  uuuhuts

Verse 3:
Am
I like standing still but that's just a wishful plan
Ask me where I come from, I'll say a different land
Dm                        F           G              Am
But I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night


Verse 4:
Am
I can't get the numbers, and play the guessing name
It's just the place that changes, the rest is still the same
Dm                        F           G              Am
But I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night

A thousand times
