Same chord progression as verse 1.

there are no blankets where he lies
and in deepest dreams the gypsy flies
to sweet Melissa

Again the morning comes

appearing not to have a care

pick up your gear and gypsy roll on

roll on
Verse 3 (same as 1 & 2 until end)
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 Melissa
C B
Yes I know that he won't stay
F#m7
without Melissa
Emaj7 F#m7
No no he just won'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...)
