Cracks And Seams chords by Wrinkle Neck Mules

Cracks and Seams  - Wrinkle Neck Mules
Track 9 - Let the Lead Fly (2009)
Standard Tuning - no capo.

Check out the song to get the strumming timing right - it's important.
The D chord is played throughout the verses.  To mimic the sound of the mandolin
during the verses, you can stretch your pinky and turn the D into a D5/A
(use your discretion - it sounds good, but hurts like hell after a while).

Vagabonds and it’s hard to hear
D
With the line drawn from over there

To the middle of the road the first bars of night
D
Creeping in.....

[Chorus]

or is it daylight?

Or is it daylight?

[Verse]
D
With your heart of water and your face of stone
D
We won’t loiter we’ll soon be gone
D
To the center of the earth, to Orion’s belt
D
It’s not till morning.....

[Chorus]
                 G
that the pain is felt
                 D
That the pain is felt
         A
We’ll dry out

[Verse]
N.C.
You go on - I’ll lag behind
D
While the saw blades turn and the waters dry
D
You light the torches, I’ll dream the dreams
D
And sing the songs....

             G
of smoke and steam
            D
Smoke and steam

In the cracks and seams

We’ll dry out

Help me dry out
        A
We’ll dry out
                  G
Won't you help me dry out?

In the cracks and seams
