CRACKING (Suzanne Vega)

-----------------------

[Actually in B; capo up four frets.]

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# G5/F#

[intro]

Em7 Em7/B A7 A7 C Cmaj7 G5 G[single note]

[intro]

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

It's a one time thing, it just happens a lot

Csus2 G/B G G5/F#

Walk with me and we will see what we have got

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

Ahhhhhhh... Ahhhhhhh...

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

My footsteps are ticking, like water dripping from a tree

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

Walking a hairline, and stepping very carefully

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# G5/F#

Ahhhhhhh... Ahhhhhhh...

Em7 Em7/B A7 A7 C Cmaj7 G5 G[single note]

Ahhhhhhh...

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

My heart is broken; it's worn out at the knees

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

Hearing muffled, seeing blind, soon it will hit the deep freeze

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

Ahhhhhhh...

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

And something is cracking, I don't know where

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

Ice on the sidewalk, brittle branches in the air

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F#

The sun is blinding, dizzy golden, dancing green

Csus2 G/B G5 F#[single note]

Through the park in the afternoon, wondering where the hell

Csus2 G/B G5 G5/F# G5/F#

I have been

Em7 Em7/B A7 A7 C Cmaj7 A7 A7 C Cmaj7 G5 G[single note]

Ah ha haaaaa...

INTRO AND VERSE:

[Most of the verse just uses the first four measures of tab.]

[Note that whenever the G5 measure comes before the Em7-A7 part,

there is also an A bass note in the second half of the measure.]
