[Intro]
A A7 D x8

[Verse 1]
A A7 D
I wonder who's sleeping in your sheets tonight
A A7 D
Whose head rests upon the bed
A A7 D
Could it be a close friend I knew so well
G D G D
Who seems to be so close to you instead, close to you instead

[Verse 2]
A A7 D
I'm blue tonight, I'm red when I'm mad
A A7 D
I'm green when I'm jealous, yellow when I'm sad
A A7 D
I guess I cannot have everything
G
So much has flown between the years, when I was twenty and you were
D G D
seventeen

[Chorus]
F Bb
So out of choice I chose rock and roll
F Bb
But it pushed me to the limit everyday
G C
It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home
G# Cm G# G
From there on, there seemed no use for you, for you to stay

[Verse 3]
A A7 D A A7 D
And if I shower around 3 a.m, it's just to wash away
A A7 D G
The trace of a love unwanted. Oh, in the times I went astray, the times I
D G D
went astray

[Chorus]
F Bb
So out of choice I chose rock and roll
F Bb
But it pushed me to the limit everyday
G C
It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home
