[D] Once I knew a woman[A/D]
Who l[G/D]ived in Gypsy ways
And [A/D]we made Gypsy love
In those my [G/D]Gypsy days [D]
She wore [A/D]broadcloth and rock jewels
And [G/D]second hand lace
Her [A/D]queenly tatters hung over
Her [G/D]perfect form and grace [D][A/C#]
We would [G/B]talk for hours about [A6]any thing
From the [D/F#]front page news to [A/G]Yeats[G]
D/F# G [ch]E7/G#[/ch]
About the New Jerusalem that quietly waits
in [Asus4]everyone[A][Bbdim]
And then shed [G/B]fill the room with spring [A6]root and sage
As we [F#m]lay by [D/F#]candle l[A/G]ight[G]
Our bodies [D/F#]locked in love [Bm7]
from [Em7]midnight [D6] to the [C13+11]morning sun
A/C# G/B [ch]Gm6/Bb[/ch] A7sus4 A7
When we were one
She [D]walked the earth lightly[A/D]
One [G/D]inch above this world
A [A/D]dreamy blue-eyed moon goddess
With an [G/D]Andalusian swirl [D]
She was a [A/D]fierce of spirit[D/F#]
Inno[G6]cence unchained
No [Em7]heir to the ills of Adam[A/C#]
My P[G]aradise reg[D/F#]ained [Em7][D][A/C#]
Then she [G/B]led me down to the [A6]edge of town
Where we [D/F#]lit our Buddha [Gmaj7]sticks
As we floated [D/F#]high above

herringbone bricks in dark galleries
A [G/B]street lamp made her [A6]eyes to shine
Like a [D/F#]beacon in the [Gmaj7]night
Offering this [D/F#]mariner [Bm7]
A [Em7]guiding light[D6] [C13+11]over stormy seas
