Cm A# Went to see the gypsy, Cm A# Stayin' in a big hotel. Cm A# He smiled when he saw me coming, Cm F And he said, "Well, well, well." A# His room was dark and crowded, Cm A# Lights were low and dim. D# A#/D Cm A# How are you?" he said to me, Cm I said it back to him. F A# I went down to the lobby Cm A# To make a small call out. Cm A pretty dancing girl was there, And she began to shout, F A# "Go on back to see the gypsy. Cm A# He can move you from the rear, D# A#/D Cm A# Drive you from your fear, D# A#/D Cm A# Bring you through the mirror. D# A#/D Cm A# He did it in Las Vegas, Cm And he can do it here." G# A# Outside the lights were shining G# A# On the river of tears, G# A# I watched them from the distance D# Cm With music in my ears. F A# I went back to see the gypsy, Cm F A# It was nearly early dawn. Cm A# The gypsy's door was open wide Cm But the gypsy was gone, F A# And that pretty dancing girl, Cm A# She could not be found. D# A#/D Cm So I watched that sun come rising A# Cm From that little Minnesota town, F A# From that little Minnesota town.
