E                F#m7                   G#m    F#m7
Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah.
E                                             F#m7                  
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
A              Bm                A   C   D
Knowing many, loving none,
E           F#m7             G#m   A        
Bearing sorrow havin' fun,
Cmaj7                          B                             E F#m G#m F#m7
But back home he'll always run to sweet melissa... mmm...

E             F#m7                           G#m             F#m7                  
Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same.
E                                              F#m7          
And no one knows the gypsy's name


[Chorus]
A          Bm7                    A    C    D    
No one hears his lonely sigh,
E                     F#m7                  G#m A    
There are no blankets where he lies.
Cmaj7                                     B                             E F#m7 G#m F#m7
In all his deepest dreams he  flies with sweet melissa... mmm...

E                                          D
Again the morning's come, Again he's on the run,
A                                                         B
Sunbeams shining through his hair, Appearing not to have a care.
G#m                                                 A        B
Well, pick up your gear and gypsy roll on, roll on.

E                F#m7              G#m         F#m7
Crossroads, will you ever let him go?
E                                            F#m7   A              Bm7                   A  C D
Will you hide the dead man's ghost,  Or will he lie, beneath the clay
A          Bm                          A   C     D
Or will he lie, beneath the clay,
E              F#m7          G#m       A
Or will his spirit fade away?
Cmaj7                              B                    E F#m7 G#m F#m7
But I know that he won't stay without melissa.
Cmaj7                              B                     E F#m7 G#m F#m7
Yes I know that he won't stay without melissa.
