Chords

[Intro] Em B7 Em B7 C G Am B7 Em [Verse]
Em
Tried to take it all away

Em
Learn her freedom just inside a day

             B7                   Em
And find her soul, to find there, fears allayed

Em
Tried to make her love their own

Em
They took her love, they left her there

                      B7                  Em
They gave her nothing back that she would want to own
[Verse]
G               D
Gold and silver rings and stones

Am            F            G
Dances slowly off the moon

       F                    Em
No one else could know, she stands alone

G                    D
Sleeping dreams will reach for her

    Am             F               G
She cannot say the words they need

          F               Em
She knows she's alone and she is free
[Chorus]
            B7
Ocean Gypsy of the moon

                   Em  D    C          C#     B7
The sun has made a thousand nights for you to hold

Em          B7
Ocean Gypsy where are you?

                     Em D   C          C#        B7
The shadows followed by the stars have turned to gold

          Em  B7   Em  B7
Turned to gold___
[Verse]
Em
Then she met a hollow soul

Em
Filled him with her light and was consoled

            B7               Em
She was the moon and he, the sun was gold

Em
Eyes were blinded with his light

Em
The sun she gave, reflected back the night

             B7             Em
The moon was waning, almost out of sight
[Verse]
G            D
Softly Ocean Gypsy calls

Am                F            G
Silence holds the stars awhile

           F             Em
They smile sadly for her where she falls

G               D
Just the time before the dawn

    Am                 F              G
The sea is hushed, the ocean calls her

        F             Em
Day has taken her and now she's gone
[Chorus]
            B7
Ocean Gypsy of the moon

                   Em  D    C          C#     B7
The sun has made a thousand nights for you to hold

Em          B7
Ocean Gypsy where are you?

                     Em D   C          C#        B7
The shadows followed by the stars have turned to gold

          Em  B7   Em  B7
Turned to gold___
[Instrumental] C G Am B7 Em [Verse]
Em
No one noticed when she died

Em
Ocean Gypsy shackled to the tide

           B7                 Em
The ebbing waves, the turning spreading wide

Em
Something gone within her eyes

Em
Her fingers, lifeless, stroked the sand

                      B7             Em
Her battered soul was lost, she was abandoned
[Verse]
G                   D
Silken threads like wings still shine

Am                  F                  G
Windswept pleasures still make patterns

              F       Em
In her lovely hair so dark and fine

G                D
Stands on high beneath the seas

Am                 F                G
Cries no more, her tears have dried

       F                 Em
Oceans weep for her, the ocean sighs
[Chorus]
            B7
Ocean Gypsy of the moon

                   Em  D    C          C#     B7
