2ND VERSE:    (played same as 1st Verse)

Away from the sellers, the papers said
Your crown was tight and heavy on your head
But still you danced and you sang
All night the telephone rang
And music kept on playing from your pen

3RD VERSE:    (played same as 1st Verse)

Now you're slipping away with your gypsy band
And you're hot on your music and playing a winning hand
He was standing in line
Thinking how you moved his mind
And feeling like he held you in his hand

Notes:
-Bar lines indicate measures of 4/4 time
-Dots (...) located under any staff are for timing, and indicate where the
 downbeats (1234) fall.
-The chords shown along the top of the staff in the verses are played as
 follows:

    F     G
 E --8-----7--
 B --10----8--
 G --10----7--
 D --x-----x--
 A --x-----x--
 E --x-----x--

-In Staff 1 of the verses, the chords printed above the staff and the tabbed
 notation are two different guitar parts (which is why the chords indicate
 G, but the tab shows G5).
