Chords for The Allman Brothers Band - Melissa (Lyrics)

[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [F#] _
[E] _ _ _ _ Crossroads [A] _
[E] seems a common goal
_ _ Yeah, _ _ gypsy fly from coast to [A] coast
_ _ [Bm] Knowing many [A] loving [D] none
_ [E] _ [F#m] Bearing sorrow, [E] having [A] fun
[C] But back home you'll [B] always run
To [E] sweet Melissa
_ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ [E] Break _ _ _ train, [F#m] _ each car [E] looks the _ same
[F#m] _ On the side of [E] view
And no one knows the [F#m] gypsy's [E] name
[A] No [Bm] one hears [A] his lonely [D] sigh
_ [E] There [F#m] are no blankets [E] where he lies
[A] _
_ [C] _ Lovely deepest dreams, the [B] gypsy flies
To [E] sweet Melissa
_ _ [A] _ Again _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ the morning [D] comes
Again he's on the [A] run
Sunbeams shining through [B] his hair
Bare not to have a [C#m] care
Pick up your gin and [A] gypsy rose _
_ [B] Road, _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] crossroads
[A] Will you [E] ever let him go?
[F#m] No, no
[E] _ Will you hide [F#m] the dead man's bones?
[A] _ _ [Bm] Nor will he last [A] beneath the [D]
plain
[E] _ [F#m] Will his spirit [E] float [A] away?
_ [C] _ But I know that [B] he won't stay Without [E] Melissa
_ Yes, [A] _ _
_ [C] _ I know that [B] he won't stay _ [B] [E] Without Melissa _ _ _ _ _
