intro D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G
D MajorD
Hold that lantern up high,
G+G A augmentedA
I could have gone anywhere.
A augmentedA
If by chance dawn don't make it home tonight,
G+G D MajorD
well thats alright with me.
D MajorD
You would hold out your arms
G+G A augmentedA
and we dance with enraptured embrace.
What I thought was so strong was a love thats now gone
G+G D MajorD
so far away from me.
CHORUS
G+G A augmentedA
And if I had been a gypsy back then,
D MajorD G+G
I couldn't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
G+G A augmentedA
From where I stand now, in front of this crowd,
D MajorD G+G
I still can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
A augmentedA
Were the lights too dim, were my eyes too blind,
G+G D MajorD
to read this gypsy deck of hearts .
A augmentedA
Was a heart too strong, that made our love go wrong,
G+G D MajorD
right from the Start.
D MajorD
I thought that you were the one,
G+G A augmentedA
back when my dreams were still young.
A augmentedA
The confessions we made, and the promises pledged,
G+G D MajorD
behind the old brickyard wall.
D MajorD
In the beat of a heart
G+G D MajorD
where time kind of slides away.
A augmentedA
For every place that you roam, there's a heart to call home,
G+G D MajorD
but you can't seem to stay.
G+G A augmentedA
And if I had been a gypsy back then,
D MajorD G+G
I couldn't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
G+G A augmentedA
From where I stand now, in front of this crowd,
D MajorD G+G
I still can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
Oh no,
D MajorD G+G
D MajorD G+G
I can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
