Same chord progression as verse 1.
Freight train each car looks the same
All the same
and no one knows the gypsy's name
no one hears his lonely sigh
there are no blankets where he lies
and in deepest dreams the gypsy flies
to sweet Melissa
EAgain the morning comes
Dagain he's on the run
Asunbeam shining through his hair
Bappearing not to have a care
C#mpick up your gear and gypsy rAoll on
Broll on
Crossroads will you ever let him go No no no
or will you hide the dead man ghost
or will he lie beneath the plain
or will his spirit float away
but I know that he won't stay
without MelEissa F#m7
CYes I know that he won't sBtay
without Melissa F#m7
NEmaj7o no he just woF#m7n't stay

I have some preferences on the playing of the _chords_ in 'Melissa' that
differ a bit from his which I think you'll find easier to play (and maybe
even sound better):
(excuse the lack of rhythm & timing but I think you can figure it out)
(still the mornin' comes...)
