D...............................................................................­...............
Hold that lantern up high,
.......................G......A.................................................­............
I could have gone anywhere.
G ................................................................................­............
If by chance dawn don't make it home tonight,
D...............................................................................­.............
well thats alright with me.
D...............................................................................­..............
You would hold out your arms
..........................G...............A.....................................­..............
and we dance with enraptured embrace.
G...............................................................................­................
What I thought was so strong was a love thats now gone
D...............................................................................­................
so far away from me.

----------------------------------CHORUS---------------------------------

G...........................A...................................................­...........
And if I had been a gypsy back then,
D................................................G..............................­........
I couldn't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
..........G............................A........................................­..........
From where I stand now, in front of this crowd,
D...............................................G...............................­.........
I still can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
................A..................................................G............­............
Were the lights too dim, were my eyes too blind,
D...............................................................................­...............
to read this gypsy deck of hearts .
...........A...............................................................G....­.............
Was a heart too strong, that made our love go wrong,
....................D...........................................................­.............
right from the Start.

I thought that you were the one,
back when my dreams were still young.
The confessions we made, and the promises pledged,
behind the old brickyard wall.

In the beat of a heart
where time kind of slides away.
For every place that you roam, there's a heart to call home,
but you can't seem to stay.

And if I had been a gypsy back then,
I couldn't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
From where I stand now, in front of this crowd,
I still can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
Oh no,

D.................G.............................................................­..........
/++++/++++/ /++++/++++ * 4

I can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
I can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
