I ^Ammet a sad old ^Ggypsy on the r^Amoad to Ber^Emlin By ch^Amance I got to sp^Gend a little ^Fmaj7time with him ^G S^Amhared a few life st^Gories on that ^Amdusty old t^Emrain So I th^Amought I'd take a ^Emminute Just to s^Fmaj7hare them ag^Gain with ^Amyou

Am G Am Em Am G Fmaj7 G Am G Am Em Am G Fmaj7 G VERSE:

He t^Amalked of all the tw^Gists and turns he'd ^Amtaken in l^Emife And ^Amhow his spirit cl^Gung to God to^Fmaj7 do what was r^Gight S^Amure he got the pr^Gize but he never c^Amounted the c^Emost F^Amelt his pain as he sh^Emared with me ^Fmaj7 All that ^Ghe had l^Amost

Am G Am Em Am G Fmaj7 G VERSE:

If ^Amyou could only s^Gee what was t^Amhere in his e^Emyes An e^Amternity of w^Gandering in s^Fmaj7earch of the pr^Gize He'd ^Amhad it all, the m^Goney, all the f^Amame and rom^Emance ^AmNow he shed a t^Gear as he f^Caced ^G the last d^Amance

BREAK:

The bl^Dmessing comes but once he said But it's n^Cot for you, it must be shared And ^Bbif you keep it to yourself You'll ^Cbe no use to anyone else And ^Dmhe who gives will take away And y^Cou will face the same dark day That ^Bbeven now is all my pain ^C I'll never have this d^Eance ag^Amain

BREAK 2:

Ch^Cances, d^Gances, how q^Dmuickly this life p^Casses ^AmAll our hopes and a^Fll our dreams Get l^Eost in all our selfish schemes You see, it's n^Cot about you, it's n^Got about me It's ab^Dmout loving something ^Cwe can't see It's ^Amall about what we are w^Filling to share It's ab^Eout our hearts and who lives th^Fere

As the t^Cmrain rolled into the c^Bbity He shook his h^Cmead as if to ^Bbsay It's y^Cmour turn now, just k^Bbnow the game That y^Abou're about to p^Bblay And it se^Cmemed as if right t^Bbhere and then A l^Cmight came to his e^Bbyes As ^Cmhe exchanged the d^Bbance of life For a ^Abfar better p^Bbrize

BREAK:

And ^Dmso the tired old gy^Cpsy drifted s^Dmlowly aw^Cay B^Dmeaten by the g^Came he'd taught so ^Bbmany to p^Clay He s^Dmaid "I'd do it a^Cll again if^Dm I had the ch^Cance" But I'm r^Dmeady now for o^Cne more bow I'll t^Bbake ^C the last d^Bbance
