[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D
Teenage Mary said to Uncle Dave
D
"I sold my soul, must be saved
D
Gonna take a walk down to Union Square
D
You never know who you're gonna find there"
[Chorus]
D
You gotta run, run, run, run, run, take a drag or two
G
Run, run, run, run, run, Gypsy death and you
D
Tell you whatcha do
[Verse 2]
D
Marguerita Passion, I had to get her fixed
D
She wasn't well, she was getting sick
D
Went to sell her soul, she wasn't high
D
Didn't know, thinks she could buy it
[Chorus]
D
And she would run, run, run, run, run, take a drag or two
G
Run, run, run, run, run, Gypsy death and you
D
Tell you whatcha do
[Guitar Solo]
D
[Verse 3]
D
Seasick Sarah had a golden nose
D
Hobnail boots wrapped around her toes
D
When she turned blue, all the angels screamed
D
They didn't know, they couldn't make the scene
[Chorus]
D
She had to run, run, run, run, run, take a drag or two
G
Run, run, run, run, run, Gypsy death and you
D
Tell you whatcha do
[Guitar Solo]
D
[Verse 4]
D
Beardless Harry, what a waste
D
Couldn't even get a small-town taste
D
Rode the trolleys down to 47th
D
Figured he was good to get himself to heaven
[Chorus]
D
Because he had to run, run, run, run, run, take a drag or two
G
Run, run, run, run, run, Gypsy death and you
D
Tell you whatcha do
[Outro-Guitar Solo]
D
