Verse 1
G 
(Dolly Parton)
We might have slept in a rail yard or
D 
G 
camped by the river bank
We fed ourselves from the fruit of the land
D 
G 
And quenched our thirst with rain
C 
F 
We never did allow no roots
C 
F 
C 
to grow beneath our feet
G 
Life just had no pattern for
D 
G 
Gypsy Joe and me
All we had was each other and the
D 
G 
rags upon our back
The closest thing to a home we new
D 
G 
was some abandoned shack
C 
F 
But we had all we needed and
C 
F 
C 
the rest we didn't need
G 
Life was free and simple for
D 
G 
Ab 
Gypsy Joe and me
Now Gypsy was my little dog,
I found by the road in a ditch
And so I named him Gypsy,
cause that name just seemed to fit
Db 
Gb 
Oh and Joe he was my man,
Db 
Gb 
Db 
the flower of my soul
Ab 
Thou he never said he loved me,
Eb 
Ab 
I just always seemed to know
While standing by the highway,
thumbin' for a ride
The speeding wheels of a passing car,
Eb 
Ab 
took Gypsy's life
Db 
Gb 
I lost him where I found him and
Db 
Gb 
Db 
his loss was misery
Ab 
Now there's no more Gypsy,
Eb 
Ab 
there's just Joe and me
A 

Verse 2
Well the winter came and the snow did fall
E 
A 
And the night was cold and still
And the rags we wore were not enough
E 
A 
And Joe he caught the chill
D 
G 
And he told me how he loved me
D 
G 
D 
And in my arms he went to sleep
A 
Now there's no more Gypsy,
E 
A 
no more Joe, there's just me

Verse 3
A 
While standin' here on
the edge of this bridge
E 
A 
Lookin' down I see
The face of Joe and Gypsy,
E 
A 
lookin' back at me
D 
G 
And somewhere in the distance
D 
G 
D 
I can hear them callin' me
A 
E 
A 
Tonight we'll be together again
A 
E 
Gypsy, Joe and me
