SONG: LADY GYPSY ARTIST: DAVID BRENT TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: [email protected] LADY GYPSY DAVID BRENT INTRO: Am VERSE: Am F C G When I had known only 18 summers. Am F C G I headed west through the Whitley Wood. Am F C G To make my fortune and find a lover. Am F C G And to lead the best life a young man could. Am F C G Lie, La, la lie, la la lie. Am F C G Oh La la lie, la la lie, la la lie. VERSE: Am F C G And by the lakeside, just south of Didcot. Am F C G I spied an angel just standing there. Am F C G She was a traveler, but she was pretty Am F C G And clean, she was in the water, washing her hair. CHORUS: F C G Am I lost my heart to a lady gypsy. F C G Am So long ago, I forget her name. F C G Am But I still remember the smell of the flowers F C G F And the way, my life, would never be the same. VERSE: Am F C G She laid me down on a bed of heather Am F C G She said, please be careful, this is what I sell Am F C G I said, you're a hooker she said, no, I mean the heather. Am F C G I sell the heather like a lucky spell. Am F C G I said huh, but to be clear then the sex is free Am F C G She said, yes, the sex is free the heather is a pound. Am F C G I said, I don't need no heather and if I did, Am F C G I would just pick some it's free it's growing in the ground. CHORUS: F C G Am I lost my heart to a lady gypsy. F C G Am So long ago, I forget her name. F C G Am But I still remember the smell of the flowers F C G F And the way, my life, would never be the same. INSTRUMENTAL: Am F C G Am F C G Am F C G Am F C G CHORUS: F C G Am I lost my heart to a lady gypsy. F C G Am So long ago, I forget her name. F C G Am But I still remember the smell of the flowers F C G F And the way, my life, would never be the same. OUTRO: F G Am F C G When I had known only 18 summers....
