INTRO: Am
 
VERSE:
Am           F       C    G
When I had known only 18 summers.
Am        F          C             G
I headed west through the Whitley Wood.
Am          F         C        G
To make my fortune and find a lover.
        Am       F       C             G
And to lead the best life a young man could.
 Am          F          C   G
Lie, La, la lie, la la lie.
          Am         F         C    G
Oh La la lie, la la lie, la la lie.
 
 
VERSE:
Am           F      C               G
And by the lakeside, just south of Didcot.
Am          F        C           G
I spied an angel just standing there.
Am          F      C             G
She was a traveler, but she was pretty
     Am            F            C             G
And clean, she was in the water, washing her hair.
 
 
CHORUS:
F          C        G     Am
I lost my heart to a lady gypsy.
F         C     G          Am
So long ago, I forget her name.
       F       C          G            Am
But I still remember the smell of the flowers
         F       C           G            F
And the way, my life, would never be the same.
 
 
VERSE:
Am           F       C        G
She laid me down on a bed of heather
        Am           F              C        G
She said, please be careful, this is what I sell
      Am          F               C               G
I said, you're a hooker she said, no, I mean the heather.
Am          F     C              G
I sell the heather like a lucky spell.
       Am              F        C            G
I said huh, but to be clear then the sex is free
          Am               F  C                  G
She said, yes, the sex is free the heather is a pound.
        Am               F     C          G
I said, I don't need no heather and if I did,
             Am              F          C              G
I would just pick some it's free it's growing in the ground.
 
 
CHORUS:
F          C        G     Am
I lost my heart to a lady gypsy.
F         C     G          Am
So long ago, I forget her name.
       F       C           G           Am
But I still remember the smell of the flowers
         F       C           G            F
And the way, my life, would never be the same.

But I still remember the smell of the flowers
         F       C           G            F
And the way, my life, would never be the same.
