Gypsy Joe and Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G](Dolly Parton)
We might have slept in a rail yard or
camped by the [D]river [G]bank
We fed ourselves from the fruit of the land
And quenched our [D]thirst with [G]rain
We [C]never did al[F]low no roots
to [C]grow be[F]neath our [C]feet
[G]Life just had no pattern for
Gypsy [D]Joe [G]an d me
All we had was each other and the
rags [D]upon our [G]back
The closest thing to a home we new
was some [D]abandoned [G]shack
But [C]we had all [F]we needed and
the [C]rest we [F]didn't [C]need
[G]Life was free and simple for
Gypsy [D]Joe [G]an d [Ab]me
Now Gypsy was my little dog,
I found by the road in a ditch
And so I named him Gypsy,
cause that name just seemed to fit
Oh and [Db]Joe he was my m[Gb]an,
the [Db]flower [Gb]of my s[Db]oul
Thou [Ab]he never said he loved me,
I just always [Eb]seemed [Ab]to know
While standing by the highway,
thumbin' for a ride
The speeding wheels of a passing car,
took [Eb]Gypsy's [Ab]life
I [Db]lost him where I [Gb]found him and
his [Db]loss was [Gb]misery[Db]
[Ab]Now there's no more Gypsy,
there's just [Eb]Joe a[Ab]nd me
[A]

[Verse 2]
Well the winter came and the snow did fall
And the night was [E]cold and [A]still
And the rags we wore were not enough
And Joe he [E]caught the [A]chill
And he [D]told me how he [G]loved me
And in my [D]arms [G]he went to [D]sleep
[A]Now there's no more Gypsy,
no more Joe, [E]there's [A]just me

[Verse 3]
While [A]standin' here on
the edge of this bridge
Lookin' [E]down I [A]see
The face of Joe and Gypsy,
[E]lookin' back at [A]me
And [D]somewhere in the [G]distance
I can [D]hear them [G]callin' [D]me
To[A]night [E]we'll [A]be together again
[A]Gypsy, [E]Joe and me

[Outro 1]
