D
Hold that lantern up high,
G A
I could have gone      anywhere.
G
If by chance dawn don't make it home tonight,     
D
well thats alright with me.

D
You would hold out your arms
G A
and we dance with      enraptured embrace.
G
What I thought was so strong was a love thats now gone     
D
so far away from me.

G A
And if I had been a gypsy back then,
D G
I couldn't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
G A
From where I stand now, in front of this crowd,
D G
I still can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.

A G
Were the lights too dim, were my eyes too blind,     
D
to read this gypsy deck of hearts.
A G
Was a heart too strong, that made our love go wrong,      
D
right from the Start.

I thought that you were the one,
back when my dreams were still young.
The confessions we made, and the promises pledged,
behind the old brickyard wall.

In the beat of a heart
where time kind of slides away.
For every place that you roam, there's a heart to call home,
but you can't seem to stay.

And if I had been a gypsy back then,
I couldn't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
From where I stand now, in front of this crowd,
I still can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.

Oh no,

I can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.
I can't read this gypsy deck of hearts.



This is how I play the violin part on guitar. It's actually not 
exactly the same, but it works.
