Suzanne Vega - Gypsy

^AYou come from ^F#mfar away ^DWith pictures in ^Ayour eyes ^AOf coffeeshops an^F#md morning streets ^DIn the blue and silent ^Esunrise ^ABut night is the ^F#mcathedral Where we ^Drecognized the ^Asign ^AWe strangers know each ^F#mother now ^DAs part of the whole ^Adesign

^BmOh, hold me ^Elike a baby ^BThat will not ^Efall asleep ^BmCurl me up ^Einside you And let me ^Bmhear you through the ^Eheat ^AOh.. ^{D A}

^AYou are the jester of this ^F#mcourtyard With a ^Dsmile like a ^Agirl's ^ADistracted by the ^F#mwomen With the ^Ddimples and t^Ehe curls By the ^Apretty and the ^F#mmischievous By the ^Dtimid and the ^Ablessed By the ^Ablowing skirts^F#m of ladies Who promise to ^Dgather you to their ^Abreast

^BmOh, hold me ^Elike a baby ^BThat will not ^Efall asleep ^BmCurl me up ^Einside you And let me ^Bmhear you through the ^Eheat ^AOh.. ^{D A}

^AYou have hands of ^F#mraining water ^DAnd that earring i^An your ear ^AThe wisdom on you^F#mr face ^DDenies the number of your^E years ^AWith the fingers of the ^F#mpotter ^DAnd the laughing tale of ^Athe fool ^AThe arranger of ^F#mdisorder ^DWith your strange and simpl^Ae rules ^AYes now I've met me a^F#mnother spinner ^DOf strange and gauzy^A threads ^AWith a long and sle^F#mnder body ^DAnd a bump upon the^A head

^BmOh, hold me ^Elike a baby ^BThat will not ^Efall asleep ^BmCurl me up ^Einside you And let me ^Bmhear you through the ^Eheat ^AOh...

^EWith a long and ^F#mslender body And the ^Dsweetest softest^A hands ^EAnd we'll blow away ^F#mforever soon And go o^Dn to different ^Elands And pl^Aease do not ^F#mever look for me But with ^Dme you will ^Astay And ^Eyou will hear ^F#myourself in song ^EBlowing by ^Aone day

^BmOh, hold me ^Elike a baby ^BThat will not ^Efall asleep ^BmCurl me up ^Einside you And let me ^Bmhear you through the ^Eheat ^AOh.. E F#m D E
