As recorded by Don McLean (From the 2024 Album AMERICAN BOYS) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
There lives, a mystic woman

     D                    E
On a hill, high above the sea

   D                      A
As she gives me, honey biscuits

    B7                E
And peaches, from her tree

D                    A
I cut her winter firewood

      D                   Dm
While she plants a garden spring

        A             F#m
But the gypsy road is calling

    D     E       A
And I can hear it sing
[Chorus]
A                 C#m
The gypsy road is calling

D                A
It should let me be

F#m
It should haunt somebody else

       B7                E
But it keeps on haunting me

D                   A
We had our summer loving

            D                 Dm
And now our seasons, have all gone

    A                F#m
The gypsy road keeps calling

            D    E        A
But there's only room for one
[Verse 2]
A
She doesn't really know me

D                       E
Although she thinks she can

    D                  A
She doesn't know, that even though

  B7                E
I love her, I'm a man

  D                       A
A man who won't stay subtle

      D                    Dm
I'm a man who hears the call

    A             F#m
One thing I know, when I go

  D          E       A
I won't look back at all
[Out-Chorus]
A                           C#m
'Cause the gypsy road is calling

    D                  A
And it it won't let me be

F#m
It should haunt somebody else

       B7                E
But it keeps on haunting me

D                   A
We had our summer loving

            D                 Dm
And now our seasons, have all gone

        A                F#m
And the gypsy road keeps calling

            D    E        A
But there's only room for one

                       F#m
Yeah the gypsy road is calling

            D    E        A
And there's only room for one
