[Verse 1]
[Am]Late some nights when the [G]moon is cold
You bet[F]ter stay in[Am]side,
and [E]not open if there's
someone at your [Am]door
Cause the woods round here
are dan[G]gerous
in the [F]middle of the night
[Am]It can steal[E] a soul
like it's often done be[Am]fore
All the loc[G]al people swear
it's the [Am]gypsy who's returned
Roam[E]ing round the woods for his [Am]wife
And in the morning when
the [G]sun comes up,
[F]the only path you'll [Am]find
[E]Bloodstained safe on a gypsy's kni[Am]fe
Go down to the church
[G]and at the graveyar[F]d you will fin[Am]d
A [E]tombstone with no
flowers and no [Am]name
The gypsy queen is [G]buried there
and if [F]what they say are true
[Am]She's laid face [E]down to
hide away the [Am]shame
All [G]the stories there are many
but at one [Am]point they all agree
By [E]stormy night the gypsy took her [Am]life
And he left her on a [G]lonely path
in the [F]middle of [Am]the woods
[E]Stabbed to death by the gypsy's [Am]knife
[C]Ooh, [F]it's a mys[C]tery they say[G]
[Am]That on that [F]night
all the [C]gypsies went away
[G]But in the woods if you hear
a [Am]gypsy's [G]lonely cry
[Am]You better run, [F]or y[E]ou're gonna die[Am]
[G][F][Am][E]
[Am][G][F][Am][E]
[Am]
It happened many [G]years ago
when [F]the gypsies roamed the land
[Am]And now [E]and then
they pass through our [Am]town
The gypsy queen was sev[G]enteen,
her [F]man was forty -four
[Am]They said [E]he was the
meanest man [Am]around
Oh, the [G]Gypsy Queen
was lonely in her town
[Am]She found someone,
[E]and secretly they'd meet
Late at [Am]night
Oh, the Gypsy caught them [G]in the woods
And [F]then late some nights
[Am]You can run, but[E] you cannot hide
From a Gypsy's [Am]night[C]
Oh, [F]it's a [C]mystery, [G]they say
[Am]That all that [F]night
all the [C]Gypsies went [G]away
But in the woods if you hear a
[Am]gypsy's [G]lonely [Am]cry,
you better [F]run, [E]or you're gonna [Am]die
[G][F][Am][E]
[Am][G][F][Am][E]
[Am]
So when the nights are getting long,
[G]you better stay out[F] of the woods[Am]
Cause the [E]gypsy might be there
and call [Am]your name
Forever he is [G]searching
though his [F]gypsy queen is [Am]dead
But a [E]young boy's blood
he's come [Am]to claim
I [G]was just a kid but I was
the [Am]only one who saw
And [E]I'm the one who took
the gypsy's [Am]life
Now he's buried with his [G]gypsy queen
but his [F]soul is in [Am]the woods
Call[E]ing out the gypsy's [Am]name
[C]Ooh, [F]I know I nev[C]er will be fre[G]e
[Am]Cause in the [F]woods someday
I [C]know you will find [G]me
And to the woods I go
where she [Am]caught me [G]late some [Am]nights
Posing [F]her [E]for the gypsies [Am]night
[C]Ooh[F], it's a mys[C]tery they say[G]
[Am]But on that [F]night all the
[C]gypsies went [G]away
Are you in the woods of
a year of [Am]dreams
that's [G]lonely, [Am]crowded, better [F]run,
[E]or you're gonna die
