Great song from David and Davids Boomtown album of 86 (Font looks different after pasting
C F
I once was a dancer, I was young once like you
C F C
Though I know I don't look it, jumped high as the sky
F C F
Had fire in my eyes and legs like a stallion
G F G Am F
And I had a girl and I loved her My best friend was her brother
G Dm F
We were on top of the mountain that summer
C F
Thought we'd never be swallowed by the cracks Fallen so far down
C F
Like the rest of those clowns begging bus fare back
C F C
Swallowed by the cracks our pride worn down talking times gone by
F G F
Like everybody else Swallowed by the cracks Swallowed by the cracks
F C F C F C F
We would never be swallowed by the cracks
C F C F
We would talk through the night about what we would do If we just could get started,
C F C F
I would choreograph Eileen she would act while Steve was a writer
G F G F
Then Stevie ran away and get bored Eileen took a job in a store
G Dm F
Me, I became this drunken old whore '
C
Cause you see we'd be swallowed by the cracks
F C F
Fallen so far down Like the rest of those clowns begging bus fare back
C F C F
Swallowed by the cracks our pride worn down Talking times gone by like everybody
G F
else Swallowed by the cracks, swallowed by the cracks
Eb Bb
Maybe it ain't over I can see it's up to me
Eb Bb
You only out when you stay out you stay out when you don't believe
Cm F
we could drive around in circles getting nowhere All night long
C Cm F C F C F
Getting drunk with strangers telling lies and singing along with the jukebox baby
Repeat Chorus Twice
C F C F C F C F
You see we been swallowed by the cracks
