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.
