D
The flashing eyes, the careless grin
G
Weaving a tune which goes right through my skin
C C7
Old songs, love songs, going to bed songs
F F# G A D
Ref: Dark-eyed gypsy you're running away with my heart
A lover, a friend, a flight of fancy
The dew on a spider's web, the rainbow's end
Here today and gone tomorrow
Ref: Dark-eyed gypsy you're running away with my heart
Bm E
His singing comes to me like white horses on the ocean,
A D
Glorious waves of passion, and I have no defenses,
Bm E
I yield myself up to the rising and the ebbing,
A D
And for a while all time has stood still for he's ...
.. the giver and the taker, the song-maker,
The heart-breaker,
You can wake my heart up any time
Ref: Dark-eyed gypsy you're running away with my heart
