Gypsy MC - Jason Mraz
 
NOTE: This is not Mudhouse/Gypsy MC. This is his original version of Gypsy MC.
 
 
I'm not positive on the "Well I'm type A-positive..." section, but what I have should
be close, if not correct. Excluding any typing errors I made, everything else should
be accurate. Watch the YouTube video for strumming patterns. Leave any needed
corrections in the comments and enjoy.

This is the most perfect version of the original version of this song. Thank you so much! However, there is one slight change I've found from watching the video. The second chord in the intro and verses looks like the following with pull off too: -0---0--5---0--6---6--6---6--x---x--5---5-And it's a lot easier and sounds perfect :-)
