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.

CHORUS:
