Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Gypsy woman
Come inside now
And take a load [C]off your [G]feet
You've been pounding the pavement
Ain't told [D]a fortune [C]in [G]weeks
She spends here money on tequila
She [D]says it [C]keeps [G]her warm
They call her many things
but her name's Cecilia
Now don't [C]you know,
now [D]don't you know

[Verse 2]
[G]Hey hey [C]hey [D]hey Cec[G]ilia

Don't you [C]know [D]don't you kno[G]w
Gypsy woman
Say she don't need ya
And asks for [D]a ride to the li[C]quor [G]store
She kills the bottle
Gives praise to Jesus
Then passes [D]out on your
[C]living room [G]floor

[Verse 3]
She tells [G]the story of a shotgun wedding
And [D]a birth of [C]a stillborn [G]child
She was only 13 and her little
body wasn't ready
[D]Ba bies watching babies die

[Verse 4]
[G]Hey hey [C]hey [D]hey Cec[G]ilia

Don't you [C]know [D]don't you know
[G]
