                             "Gypsy Woman"
                           (Curtis Mayfield)

Intro (guitar and castanets):

	B        Bm       B        Bm
	/ / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

Verse 1:

	G#m
	From nowhere through a caravan
	Around the campfire light
	C#m
	A lovely woman in motion
	With hair as dark as night
	D#m                         C#m
	Her eyes were like that of a cat in the dark
	     D#m                C#m   F#7
	That hypnotized me with love

Chorus:

	           B      C#m  /F#
	She was a gypsy woman
	           B      C#m  /F#
	She was a gypsy woman

Verse 2:

	She danced around and round to a guitar melody
	From the fire her face was all aglow
	How she enchanted me
	Oh, how I'd love to hold her near
	And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

Chorus 2:

	I love you, gypsy woman
	I love you, gypsy woman

Bridge:

	G#m
	All through the caravan
	D#m
	She was dancing with all the men
	G#m
	Waiting for the rising sun
	D#m
	Everyone was having fun
	G#m
	I hate to see the lady go
	D#m
	Knowing she'll never know
	C#m                 /F# F#
	That I love her, I love her

Coda (repeat to fade):

	           B      C#m  /F#
	She was a gypsy woman
