[I'm not sure how to finger the chord I listed as B*. You could try
x24440 or x24442. I usually play B5 (2244xx), because it's easy.]

The crossroads seem to come and go
MI MI FA#m7(4) FA#m7(4)
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
LA SIm LAmaj7 SIm
Knowing many, loving none

Bearing sorrow, having fun

But back home he'll always run

To sweet Melissa [tab #2]
The freight train, each car looks the same, all the same
No one knows the gypsy's name
No one hears his lonely sigh
There are no blankets where he lies
In all his deepest dreams the gypsy flies

Sunbeams shining through his hair, appearing not to have a care
C#m C#m A A B B (2-bar riff, no chord)
Pick up your gear and gypsy, roll on, roll on [tab #4]
Crossroads, will you ever let him go
Will you hide the dead man's ghost
Or will he lie beneath the plain
Or will his spirit float away

But I know he won't stay here

RHYTHM:
Amy's part has a rhythm like this through most of the song:
("V" is a loud strum, "v" is soft.)
V v V v V V V V v v
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -
TAB:
[T is the 10th fret; E is 11; W is 12. I did this so that the spacing
would still make sense.]
[An equal sign (=) is a hammer-on or pull-off; a tilde (~) is a bend.]
["9E" or any other numbers right next to each other are just a fast
hammer-on.]
