Melissa - Allman Brothers (cover)

The tricky chords are well worth learning for this beautiful song: E, F#m7, Emaj7, F#m7, A, Bm, A, C, B
Crossroads seem to come and go, yeah
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
Knowing many loving arms
Bearing sorrow, having fun

But back home he'll always run
To sweet Melissa

Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same
And no one knows the gypsy's name
No one hears his lonely sigh
There are no blankets where he lies

And in deepest dreams the gypsy flies
To sweet Melissa

Again the morning comes
Again hes on the run
Sunbeam shining through his hair
Appearing not to have a care

Pick up your gear and gypsy roll on, roll on
Crossroads, will you ever let him go...no, no, no
Or will you hide the dead mans ghost
Or will he lie beneath the clay
Or will his spirit float away

But I know that he won't stay
Without Melissa
No, no he just wont stay
Without Melissa
