I Recall a Gypsy Woman
Don Williams
Verse 1:
Silver [A] coins that [D] jingle [A] jangle fancy shoes that dance in [E7] time
Oh the [A] secrets [D] of her [A] dark eyes they did [E7] sing a gypsy [A] rhyme
Verse 2:
Yellow clover in [D] tangled [A] blossoms in a meadow silky [E7] green
Where she [A] held me [D] to her [A] bosom
just a [E7] boy of seven[A]teen
|Chorus:
|I re-[D] call a gypsy [A] woman silver spangles in her [E7] eyes
|Ivory [A] skin a[D] gainst the [A] moonlight
|and the [E7] taste of life's sweet [A] wine
Verse 3:
Soft breezes blow from [D] fragrant [A] meadows stir the darkness in my [E7] mind
Oh gentle [A] woman you [D] sleep be[A]side me
and little know who [E7] haunts my [A] mind
Verse 4:
Gypsy lady I [D] hear your [A] laughter and it dances in my [E7] head
While my [A] tender [D] wife and [A] babies , slumber [E7] softly in their [A] bed
|Chorus:
|I re-[D] call a gypsy [A] woman silver spangles in her [E7] eyes
|Ivory [A] skin a[D] gainst the [A] moonlight
|and the [E7] taste of life's sweet [A] wine
