D A/D
once i knew a woman

G/D
who lived in gypsy ways

A/D
and we made gypsy love

G/D D
in those my gypsy days

A/D
she wore broadcloth and rock jewels

G/D
and second hand lace

A/D
her queenly tatters hung over

G/D D A/C#
her perfect form and grace

G/B A6
we would talk for hours about any thing

D/F# A/G G
from the front page news to yeats

D/F# G [ ch ] E7/G# [ /Ch ]
about the new jerusalem that quietly waits

Asus4 A A#dim
in everyone

G/B A6
and then shed fill the room with spring root and sage

F#m D/F# A/G G
as we lay by candle light

D/F# Bm7
our bodies locked in love

Em7 D6 C13+11
from midnight to the morning sun

A/C# G/B [ ch ] Gm6/A# [ /Ch ] A7sus4 A7
when we were one

D A/D
she walked the earth lightly

G/D
one inch above this world

A/D
a dreamy blue – eyed moon goddess

G/D D
with an andalusian swirl

A/D D/F#
she was a fierce of spirit

G6
innocence unchained

Em7 A/C#
no heir to the ills of adam

G D/F# Em7 D A/C#
my paradise regained

G/B A6
then she led me down to the edge of town

D/F# Gmaj7
where we lit our buddha sticks

D/F#
as we floated high above

G [ ch ] E7/G# [ /Ch ] Asus4 A A#dim
herringbone bricks in dark galleries

G/B A6
a street lamp made her eyes to shine

D/F# Gmaj7
like a beacon in the night

D/F# Bm7
offering this mariner

Em7 D6 C13+11
A guiding light over stormy seas

A/C# G/B [ ch ] Gm6/A# [ /Ch ] A7sus4 A7
and memories
