Trooper-Last Of The Gypsies
D D
D
He woke up in the back of the van
A
Five in the mornin' with the rest of the band
G D
Waitin' for sunrise he picked up his old guitar
D
With five hundred miles left to go
A
He started playin' soft and low
G A
He didn't play no rock n' roll He sang a gypsy song
D
Ladies lock up your daughters
F#m
Home where they belong
G
Don't let 'em go where the lights are bright
A
and the gypsy sings his song
D
Don't let your restless boys
F#m
Be tempted by the sound
G
of singin' and dancing
A
'Cause the last of the gypsies
D
are comin' to town
D
As he sat on his suitcase and played
A
His thoughts started drifting away
G D
Back down the highway To the night before
D
To the people, the noise, and the light
A
And the singing late into the night
G A
And the slippin' away Back to the road
D
Ladies lock up your daughters
F#m
Hold the brothers down
G
Don't let 'em go to the show tonight
A
When the gypsies come to town
[Instrumental]
D F#m G A D
D
He grew up with a need to be free
A
Just like the gypsies of old used to be
G A
Ain't he just like you and me
D
So he's out on the road with the boys
F#m
Playing their guitars and makin' noise
G
Singing their songs every night
A
Just like a gypsy band
D
Ladies lock up your daughters
F#m
Home where they belong
G
Don't let 'em go where the lights are bright
A
and the gypsy sings his song
D
Don't let your restless boys
F#m
Be tempted by the sound
G
of singin' and dancing
A
'Cause the last of the gypsies

are comin' to town
