[Verse 1]
CI'm ready anGd I'm lettin' go now
AmThat is what Fmaj7I am doing
CThat is what this turmoil Ghas been about
AmThat and the rumours of Fmaj7who you've been screwing
CI'm not burying my Ghead in the sand
AmI say this with peace, love Fmaj7and understanding
CI'm glad you're in some kind of Gpeaceful place now
AmBut darling you were definitely Fmaj7the last one of us standing
[Chorus]
CWhen you giGpsy faded on us
AmI needed Fmaj7to say goodbye
CBut you gipGsy faded on usAm  Fmaj7  
[Verse 2]
CI guess there's always a chance of us Gcoming back together
AmBut that seems unlikely Fmaj7in this kind of weather
CI just never saw it coming, Gso forgive me the shock
AmOf becoming a stranger Fmaj7walking down my own block
CI'm getting over it tho', Gyou are faded from my view
AmAnd soon, I hope, you will be gone Fmaj7as I've been gone for you
CI do, however, wanna say Gthat I wish you the best
AmPast the anger of betrayal Fmaj7and the need to second guess
[Chorus]
CWhen you giGpsy faded on us
AmI needed Fmaj7to say goodbye
CBut you gipGsy faded on usAm  Fmaj7  Bm  Bm

EmI don't feel yAou anymorBmeBm  
EmWe were holding Aphantom hanAds
(stay on A a few times with some hammering and go back into the verse)
[Verse 3]
CI don’t want to stir this all back upG  
AmBut leaving it in vague has proved too painful fFmaj7or me
CIt’s easier to to deal with things like this when they aGre clear
AmWhere as once I was blind I can finally Fmaj7see
CAnd like that old saying goes when you let your bird flyG  
AmIf she comes back to you she’s really yours and Fmaj7free
CWell this time you didn’t come back so I guess you werenG’t mine
AmI still love you of course, but I let go of the Fmaj7need
[Chorus]
CWhen you giGpsy faded on us
AmI needed Fmaj7to say goodbye
CBut you gipGsy faded on usAm  Fmaj7
