2nd VERSE:
D
Gypsy, she say I got the fever,
G D
I don't know whether to believe her,

But when the wind blow from the sea,
G A/G D
My soul start to fly away,
D
She give me charm that will protect me,
G D
Necklace with stone from far across the sea,
D
But island magic much too strong,
G A/G D
It won't let me go this time.
