David Francey - Gypsy Boys
INTRO: D A D A D G C G D G D A D
A
Times down here they was hard as life
D
Ice on the frozen river
A
And the promises made by the men in grey
D
They seem to be delivered
G C G
Deaken and me we were marking time
D G
In the ranks of the unemployed
D A
When they hired us on for a week or so
D A D
To work with the Gypsy Boys, oh
A
Well, the factory closed down yesterday
D
The textiles' turn tomorrow
A
Say what you will, but down this way
D
One goes, the other follows
G C G
So it's up you riggers, up you riggers go
D G
While your chains around, rejoice
D A
'Cause they hired us on for a week or so
D
To work with the Gypsy Boys
INSTRUMENTAL: D A D A D G C G D G D A D
A
Well, the lights come up and the crowd goes home
D
And they're bringing the stage-hand down
A
And we're paid our wages and the loading's over
D
We're gone to another town
G C G
And from Pennsylvania in the great North West
D G
From Champagne, Illinois
D A
Well, they've hired us on for a week or so
D
To work with the Gypsy Boys, oh
G C G
For they're calling the towns, tipping all ashore
D G
All lights and fire and noise
D A
And they've hired us on for a week or so
D A D
To work with the Gypsy Boys
