C                           F          C
A gypsy fortune teller in a gay market place

                                D7             G7
Saw in her crystal ball a young girls stricken face

       C                          F            C
Saw in clouds another woman and a man who were wed

         G7                                        C
She said turn back my childhood there's heartbreak ahead


                                G7
Heartbreak ahead the roadway is dark

                               C
You're paying for what started out as a lie

                                                G7
Your young dreams are broken your heart is like lead

                                        C
You can't run away from this heartbreak ahead


                                 F              C
The girl cried oh kind gypsy you have opened my heart

                          D7            G7
I love him he loves me we can't bear to part

  C                           F            C
I tried to give him up when I found he was wed

        G7                                C
There's nothing for me now but heartbreak ahead


                                    F            C
The gypsy said my child you give up shame and disgrace

                                   D7            G7
Give him up or the world will soon laugh in your face

    C                          F          C
You can't break up a home of a man who is wed

        G7                                 C
Without causing more sorrow and heartbreak ahead


                                    G7
Heartbreak ahead and you're both to blame

                                    C
But it's not too late child to turn back from shame

                                       G7
But love without honor is love that is dead

                                        C
And time will soon heal your heartbreak ahead
