Chords

Song: Gypsy Faded Artist: Joseph Arthur Album: The Graduation Ceremony Tabbed by Audiophile267 Very nice song, and I guess my tab is pretty accurate! As always in his songs lots of hammer ons, so add some when you think it would sound nice ;) No Capo, Chords required: C (x32010) G (32003x) Am (x02210) Fmaj7 (x33210) Bm (x24432) Em (022000) A (x02220) Strumming: D DUDU D DUDU each chord (just a suggestion) [Verse 1]
C           G
I'm ready and I'm lettin' go now

Am           Fmaj7
That is what I am doing

C                         G
That is what this turmoil has been about

Am                      Fmaj7
That and the rumours of who you've been screwing

C                  G
I'm not burying my head in the sand

Am                          Fmaj7
I say this with peace, love and understanding

C                               G
I'm glad you're in some kind of peaceful place now

Am                              Fmaj7
But darling you were definitely the last one of us standing
[Chorus]
C          G
When you gipsy faded on us

Am       Fmaj7
I needed to say goodbye

C          G             Am    Fmaj7
But you gipsy faded on us
[Verse 2]
C                                    G
I guess there's always a chance of us coming back together

Am                      Fmaj7
But that seems unlikely in this kind of weather

C                           G
I just never saw it coming, so forgive me the shock

Am                     Fmaj7
Of becoming a stranger walking down my own block

C                         G
I'm getting over it tho', you are faded from my view

Am                                 Fmaj7
And soon, I hope, you will be gone as I've been gone for you

C                        G
I do, however, wanna say that I wish you the best

Am                        Fmaj7
Past the anger of betrayal and the need to second guess
[Chorus]
C          G
When you gipsy faded on us

Am       Fmaj7
I needed to say goodbye

C          G             Am    Fmaj7  Bm Bm
But you gipsy faded on us
[Bridge]
Em            A        Bm     Bm
I don't feel you anymore

Em            A         Bm    Bm
We were holding phantom hands

Em            A        Bm     Bm
I don't feel you anymore

Em              A          A
We were holding phantom hands
(stay on A a few times with some hammering and go back into the verse) [Verse 3]
C                                     G
I don’t want to stir this all back up

Am                                              Fmaj7
But leaving it in vague has proved too painful for me

C                                                       G
It’s easier to to deal with things like this when they are clear

Am                                      Fmaj7
Where as once I was blind I can finally see

C                                                       G
And like that old saying goes when you let your bird fly

Am                                              Fmaj7
If she comes back to you she’s really yours and free

C                                                       G
Well this time you didn’t come back so I guess you weren’t mine

Am                                              Fmaj7
I still love you of course, but I let go of the need
[Chorus]
C          G
When you gipsy faded on us

Am       Fmaj7
I needed to say goodbye

C          G             Am    Fmaj7
But you gipsy faded on us
