Intro: C  G  C  G  C 

           G            C 
My love is like a gypsy rose 
            F    G       C 
Wild is the only way she grows 
              F       G       Em 
Out where the sweet July wind blows 
                F  G   C 
She blooms over yonder 


             G               C 
Her voice is like a mountain stream 
          F          G     C 
Washes me clear, washes me clean 
        F          G       Em 
I walk along those banks serene 
               F  G 
Where she will wander 


  
       C           G                Am 
'Cause there is no hill high as the moon 
         F      G        C 
No river deeper than the sea 
            G                 Am 
No shooting star, reckless in flight 
             Em 
Burns in the night 
            Am       G       F 
Wild as the love she gave to me 
         C                    G   
Only the rain knows where she goes 
E7          Am 
Thunder and me 
G        F       G     C      G  C  F  G  C 
Rambling with my Gypsy Rose 



           G                C 
And on the day that we were wed 
          F     G       C 
Up to the altar she was led 
           F        G     Em 
Lay like a prisoner in my bed 
           F  G     C 
Oh, how we shivered 


             G                 C 
So I built a house to keep her in 
            F        G       C 
Guarded her from the sun and wind 
           F       G       Em 
But in the Autumn she grew thin 
               F   G 
In winter, she withered 



 
C           G                Am 
There is no hill high as the moon 
         F      G        C 
No river deeper than the sea 
            G                 Am 
No shooting star, reckless in flight 
             Em 
Burns in the night 
            Am       G       F 
Wild as the love she gave to me 
         C                    G   
Only the rain knows where she goes 
E7          Am 
Thunder and me 
G        F       G     C 
Rambling with my Gypsy Rose

            G             C 
My love was buried in the spring 
          F       G          C 
I see her face in blossoming things 
            F         G         Em 
One night I thought I heard her sing 
            F  G   C 
Down in the hollow 


               G                C 
Now, it's been thirty years and three 
      F         G        C 
Every night she calls to me 
           F       G       Em 
And for as long as I shall be 
            F  G 
I know I'll follow 
  

 
       C           G                Am 
'Cause there is no hill high as the moon 
         F      G        C 
No river deeper than the sea 
            G                 Am 
No shooting star, reckless in flight 
             Em 
Burns in the night 
            Am       G       F 
Wild as the love she gave to me 
         C                    G   
Only the rain knows where she grows 
E7          Am 
Thunder and me 
G        F       G     C 
Rambling with my Gypsy Rose
