Melissa
Allman Brothers Band

[Intro]
 E F#m G#m F#m

[Verse]
 E         F#m                  G#m   F#m
Crossroads,    seem to come and go…   yeah.
 E                            F#m                   
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
 A      Bm           C#m   D
Knowing many, loving none,
 E      F#m           G#m   A         
Bearing sorrow havin' fun,
 Cmaj7                     B              E  F#m  G#m  F#m
But back home he'll always run to sweet Melissa 

[Verse]
 E           F#m                    G#m           F#m                   
Freight train,   each car looks the same, all the same.
 E                           F#m           
And no one knows the gypsy's name
 A     Bm               C#m    D      
No one hears his lonely sigh,
 E           F#m               G#m   A  
There are no blankets where he lies. 
 Cmaj7                              B 
In all his deepest dreams the gypsy flies 
             E  F#m  G#m  F#m
With sweet Melissa

[Chorus]
 E
Again the morning's come,
 D
Again he's on the run,
 A
Sunbeams shining through his hair,
 B
Appearing not to have a care.
 C#m                                   A          B
Well, Gypsy pick up your gear and roll on... roll on.

[Verse]
 E         F#m                       G#m        F#m
Crossroads,    will you ever let him go? (lord, lord)
 E                           F#m
Will you hide the dead man's ghost,
 A         Bm               C#m   D
Or will he lie, beneath the clay,
 E          F#m      G#m      A
Or will his spirit roll away? 
 Cmaj7                   B              E  F#m  G#m  F#m
But I know that he won't stay without Melissa.
 Cmaj7                   B              E  F#m  G#m  F#m
Yes I know that he won't stay without Melissa.
