Subject: CRD: Gypsy Girl by Wet Wet Wet

Title: "Gypsy Girl"
Band: "Wet Wet Wet"
Transcription: "Mungo Henning"

I think that the following track by Wet Wet Wet
off their "Picture This" album was an excellent example
of acoustic guitar playing. Hope I heard the words
right: E&OE. I also scrimped on the "la la la" bit :-) 


Intro: G  C  G  C

G
Ten years before my time
  C
I sang a song to a friend of mine
D                          G       [D* C G]
'bout a girl working for a dime

G
I didn't know that gypsy girl
      C
but I knew about her kind of thrill
    D                                G
Her love was cheap and always up for sale

C           D           Em
ooh picture this, I was alone
    D
but when I fell in love
      C                          G
I was alone... ooh with my gypsy girl

[little run: G C G D* C G
The D* is a plain C chord up two frets to make a D. Play it fast
enough and it sounds okay. ]

      G
Now a gypsy lady lost her soul
    C
and she's so scared of growin' old
    D
but words don't age for me
             G
they turn to gold
G
Gypsy girl with raven hair
C
holds my open(?) to the air
D                                  G
she's the one that never seems to care....

C           D           Em
ooh picture this, I not alone
    D
but when I sing a song
        C                      G
I'm not alone... with my gypsy girl
with my gypsy girl

la la la la la la, la la la la la la.....

C           D             Em
ooh picture this, I'm not alone
    D
but when I sing your song
        C                      G
I'm not alone... with my gypsy girl
My gypsy girl
