Crack In The Wall chords by Suzanne Vega

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
G           D              C
A crack appeared inside a wall
    G          D   G
A door sprang up around it
G         D              C
Each of these so finely drawn
C        G      D        G
I could not believe I found it

Refrain:
G                       D9sus
A wildish wind blew it open wide
G                          D9sus
My childish mind followed on outside
G           D     G     C
And so I found myself among
C    G        D         G
My heart's delight surrounded

Verse 2:
G                         C
A world of wonder lay without
C       G        D       G
It was all of nature's calling
G                                  C
With field and forest, clouds and sun
C   G         D          G
Cascades of salt water falling

Refrain:
G                         D9sus
With heights and valleys, dark ravines
G                     D9sus
Ivy thick and wild, deep and thorny scenes
G              D         G        C
And yet each thing did love its place
C       G      D                 G
In the lap of all of nature's sprawling

Bridge:
G7/D            D9sus
And so and so it goes
G7/D            D9sus
And so and so it goes

Verse 3:
G            D                 C
I asked the one whose land it was
   G        D     G
If I could have a token
G   D            G                 C
To take with me back to the other side
    G            D      G
To have and to keep unspoken

Refrain:
G                           D9sus
I asked three times and was thrice denied
G             D9sus
I asked again without my pride
G              D          G         C
And found I'd lost that world I'd lived
     G       D        G
Returned as one now broken

Refrain:
G                  D9sus
A crumb, a rag, a withered leaf
G                      D9sus
In the chilly winds of cold relief
G  D    G               C
I knew myself as I had been
C   G       D     G
As from a dream awoken

Bridge:
G7/D            D9sus
And so and so it goes
G7/D            D9sus
And so and so it goes

Outro:
             G       D       G      C
But then a crack appeared inside a wall
       G          D     G
And a door sprang up around it
