[G]Step inside my t[D/F#]ent, said she, I'd [A]like to read you p[Bm7]alm
Leave the dollar in the jar, this won't take very long
Leave the circus noise behind, close your eyes, relax your mind
I'll [G]tell you if you [D/F#]should quit now or [A]if you should go o[B]n
[B]Then I said, now [A]what do ya see? She said, [B]deedlee-dum, [A]deedlee-dee.
[B]Where'll I go, [A]what'll I be? She said, [B]deedlee-dum, [F#m]deedlee-dee.
She threw some sawdust in the air and her hands began to shake
She told me the town where I was born, she almost knew the date
She lit a candle with her eyes and then she made the table rise
She took the dollar from the jar and then she guessed my weight
And then I said, now what do ya see? She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
You are so old, you are so wise. Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dy.
Give me a sign, tell it to me. She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
Then she spoke most quietly, oh, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
When you were a child at school they taught you quite a lot
You were told when you should speak and when you should not
You were taught to read and write, to take your lessons home at night
A little knowledge serves you well but the golden rule does not
Then I said, now what do ya mean? She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
Where'll I go, what'll I be? She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
Then when I came home that night to lie awake in bed
I thought of that old gypsy and the words that she had said
And now I see with due respect, the more we learn the worse we get
So if you feel you've no regrets, go have your fortune read
Then I said, now what do ya mean? She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
Where'll I go, what'll I be? She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
You are so old, you are so wise. Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dy.
Give me a sign, tell it to me. She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
Where'll I go, what'll I be? She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
You are so old, you are so wise. Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dy.
Give me a sign, tell it to me. She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee.
