   After playing Rhy.Fig.1 The singing starts.

   Lyrics:
        Verse 1:
                (Rhy.Fig.1)
                Gypsy, sitting looking pretty
                a broken rose with laughing eyes

                (Rhy.Fig.1)
                You're a myst'ry, always running wild
                like a child without a home

                (Rhy.Fig.1)
                You're always searching, searching for a feeling
                but it's easy come and easy go....

                ohoh, I'm sorry but its....

   Pre chorus:
    (w/distortion)

                lady how you hold the key. ohh.

                (Rhy.fig.1)
                You're like a candle, your flame is slowly fading,
                burning out and burning me.

                can't you see? just tryin' to say to..
