We might have slept in a mayor's yard or camped by the river banks.
We fed ourselves from the fruit of the land and quenched our thirst with the rain.
[E] We never [A] did allow no [E] roots to grow beneath our feet.
[B] Life just had no pattern for Gypsy Joe and me.
All we had was each other and a rag to fall on our backs.
The closest thing to a home we knew was some abandoned shed.
[E] But we had [A] all we wanted [E] and the rest we didn't need.
[B] Life was free and simple for Gypsy Joe and me.
[C] Now Gypsy was my little dog I'd found by the road in a ditch.
And so I named him Gypsy, cause I named his sing to fit.
[F] Oh and Joe he [A#] was the flower [F] of my soul.
[C] Though he never said he loved me, I just [G] always [C] singed oh.
While standing by the highway, a thumbing for a ride,
The speeding wheels of a passing car took Gypsy's life.
[F] I lost him [A#] where I owned [F] him and his loss was misery.
[C] Now there's no more Gypsy, there's just Joe and me.
[C#]
Well the winter came and the snow did fall and the night was cold and still.
And the rags we wore were not enough, Joe [G#] he [C#] caught the chill.
And [F#] he told me how [B]
he [F#] hit the sea.
And [C#] now there's no more Gypsy, no more Joe, there's just me.
While standing here on the edge of this bridge, looking down I see,
The face of Joe and Gypsy looking [C#] up at me.
[F#]
Once [B] at distance I can hear them calling [F#] me,
[C#] Tonight we'll be together again, Gypsy Joe and me.
Yeah tonight we'll be together again, Gypsy [G#] Joe and me.
