[Intro]
 E F#m G#m F#m

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

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

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

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

 E          F#m                     G#m        F#m
Crossroads, will you ever let him go? (lord, lord)
 E                        F#m
Will you hide the dead man's ghost,
 A          Bm                C#m     D
Or will he lie, beneath the clay,
 E              F#m          G#m       A
Or will his spirit roll away? 

[Chorus]
 Cmaj7                          B               E F#m G#m F#m
But I know that he won't stay without melissa.
 Cmaj7                          B               E F#m G#m F#m
Yes I know that he won't stay without melissa.
