Gypsy Of A Strange And Distant Time by The Moody Blues - Guitar Chords

<< Back to The Moody Blues Song List

Version 1

            Artist: Moody Blues
Song: Gypsy (Of a Strange and Distant Time)

Notes:
I would recommend power chords starting on the A string for these intro chords, but
that actually doesn't make it sound exactly how they do in the song.

* = These chords are strummed once while synthesizer plays the chord and sustains it.
    (Without a synthesizer I would strum them)


(Some orchestra type sounds with bass)

[Intro]
| Em  | Em  D | Em   | Em  D |
| Em  | Em  D | Em   | Em  D |
| Em* | G* | A* | C* |
| Em* | G* | A* | C* |

[Verse 1]
Em            G           A
A gypsy of a strange and distant time
Em            G             A
Travelling in panic, all direction blind,
Em             G           A
Aching for the warmth of a burning sun,
Em              G                  A
Freezing in the emptiness of where he'd come from.

| Em      | %          | C         | %          |
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah,
Em             D9             C
Left without a hope of coming home.

[Interlude]
| Em D Em     | Em D | Em D Em     | Em D |
| Em* | G* | A* | C* |
| Em* | G* | A* | C* |

[Verse 2]
Em                 G            A
Speeding through a shadow of a million years
Em              G             A
Darkness is the only sound to reach his ears,
Em                   G             A
Frightening him with visions of eternity,
Em              G                 A
Screaming for a future that could never be.

| Em       | %          | C          | %          |
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah,
Em             D9             C
Left without a hope of coming home.

[Bridge]
C                   D
Ah ah ah  ah ah ah, Ah,
Em D Em    Em D
Ah ah         Ah ah

| Em* | G* | A* | C* |
| Em* | G* | A* | C* |

[Verse 3]
Em            G           A
A gypsy of a strange and distant time
Em            G             A
Travelling in panic, all direction blind,
Em             G           A
Aching for the warmth of a burning sun,
Em              G                  A
Freezing in the emptiness of where he'd come from.

| Em       | %          | C          | %          |
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah,
Em             D9             C
Left without a hope of coming home.

| Em D Em     | Em D | Em D Em     | Em D |
| Em D Em     | Em D | Em D Em     | Em D |
| Em D Em     | Em D | Em D Em     | Em D |

[Outro]
Em             D
Left without a hope of coming home.
Em             D
Left without a hope of coming home.
