Verse 1
(G major) The sun down on the sand walking,
an old woman walks home from work. (D major)
Another day in the fields,
another day in the dirt. (G major)
She lights a sacred candle
next to a faded photograph (C major)
She says (D major) a prayer for a young man
who fell between the crack (G major) s
She stares at the photo
of the young man
who caused so much pain
(D major) In countless twelve -round bloodbaths,
When Kid Jesus was his (G major) name,
He was the pride of the valley,
Till the night he stayed
down on his back (C major) ,
He (D major) took the dive and he disappeared,
Down between the crack (G major) s.
She said Je (C major) sus was just a poor (G major) one
on the (C major) wrong side of the track. (D major)
He (C major) rose again but not before
(E minor) he fell (D major) between the crack (G major) s.
She re -reads all his letters
that he wrote her from L .A.
He (D major) said, please don't worry about me,
I'm coming home again someday. (G major)
Then she remembers the other stories
that were whispered behind her back (C major)
about a (D major) shooting outside a
grocery store
somewhere between the cracks. (G major)
She said (C major) Je sus was just a poor (G major) boy
On the (C major) wrong side of the track
(D major) He rose (C major) again but not be (E minor) fore
He (D major) fell away in the grass (G major) (C major) (E minor) (D major) (G major)
Sunrise on the sand walking,
an old woman walks off to work, (D major)
another day in the fields,
another day in the dirt. (G major)
She stares at all the children,
dropping rich men's fruit in their sacks, (C major)
and she (D major) says a (G major)
She said Je (C major) sus was just a poor (G major) boy
On the (C major) wrong side of the track (D major)
And he rose (C major) again but not before
(E minor) He fell (D major) between the crack (G major) s
And He (C major) rose again, but not be (E minor) fore
He fell (D major) between the crack (G major) s (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
