[VERSE 1]
[G]A crack appe[D]ared inside a w[C]all
A do[G]or sprang u[D]p ar[G]ound it
[G]Each of th[D]ese so finely d[C]rawn
[C]I could n[G]ot beli[D]eve I fou[G]nd it
[REFRAIN]
[G]A wildish wind blew it o[D9sus]pen wide
[G]My childish mind followed o[D9sus]n outside
[G]And so I fou[D]nd mys[G]elf am[C]ong
[C]My he[G]art's del[D]ight surro[G]unded
[VERSE 2]
[G]A world of wonder lay with[C]out
[C]It was a[G]ll of nat[D]ure's ca[G]lling
[G]With field and forest, clouds and s[C]un
[C]Casc[G]ades of sa[D]lt water fa[G]lling
[REFRAIN]
[G]With heights and valleys, [D9sus]dark ravines
[G]Ivy thick and wild, de[D9sus]ep and thorny scenes
[G]And yet each th[D]ing did lo[G]ve its pl[C]ace
[C]In the l[G]ap of a[D]ll of nature's spr[G]awling
[BRIDGE]
[G7/D]And so and so it[D9sus] goes
[G7/D]And so and so it[D9sus] goes
[VERSE 3]
[G]I asked the o[D]ne whose land it w[C]as
If [G]I could h[D]ave a [G]token
[G]To t[D]ake with me b[G]ack to the other s[C]ide
To h[G]ave and to ke[D]ep unsp[G]oken
[REFRAIN]
[G]I asked three times and was [D9sus]thrice denied
[G]I asked again [D9sus]without my pride
[G]And found I'd l[D]ost that wo[G]rld I'd li[C]ved
Retur[G]ned as o[D]ne now br[G]oken
[REFRAIN]
[G]A crumb, a rag, a w[D9sus]ithered leaf
[G]In the chilly winds of [D9sus]cold relief
[G]I k[D]new m[G]yself as I had b[C]een
[C]As f[G]rom a dr[D]eam aw[G]oken
[BRIDGE]
[G7/D]And so and so it[D9sus] goes
[G7/D]And so and so it[D9sus] goes
[OUTRO]
But then a cr[G]ack appe[D]ared ins[G]ide a w[C]all
And a d[G]oor sprang [D]up aro[G]und it
[G]A crack appe[D]ared inside a w[C]all
