Crossroads seem to come and go, yeah
E F#m
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
A Bm C#m Bm
Knowing many, loving none
E F#m G#m F#m
Bearing sorrow, having fun
C B (n.c.)
But back home he'll always run
E F#m G#m F#m
To sweet Melissa mmmm
Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same
And no one knows the gypsy's name
No one hears his lonely sigh
There are no blankets where he lies
Lord, in deepest dreams the gypsy flies
To sweet Melissa, mmmmm
BRIDGE:
E
Again the morning comes
D
Again he's on the run
A
Sunbeam shining through his hair
B
Appearing not to have a care
C#m A B (n.c.)
Pick up your gear and gypsy roll on, roll on
Crossroads, will you ever let him go, no, no, no
Or will you hide the dead man ghost
Or will he lie beneath the plain
Or will his spirit float away
But I know that he won't stay
E F#m
Without Melissa
C B E F#m
Yes I know that he won't stay without Melissa
G#m F#m
No, no he just won't stay
E F#m G#m F#m (repeat and fade)
