[B]
I like digging holes and hiding things inside them.
When I grow old I hope I won't forget to [F] find [E] them.
Cause I've got [F#m] memories [G] and travel like gypsies in the night.
[B]
I build a home and wait for someone to tear it down.
Then pack it up in boxes, head for the next town.
Cause I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night.
[E]
I've seen this [G] road a [A] thousand times.
I've got no roots but my home was never on the ground.

But I've got [A] [G] memories and [F#m] travel like gypsies [B] in the night.
[A] [B] [A] [B]
I [A] count gates and [B] numbers and play the guessing game.
It's just the place that changes, the rest is still the same.
