Between The Cracks Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

GHope grows between cracks in the asphalt

 In the Em7downtown ghetto streets that contour

 The gCovernment housing intentions of my Gheart

 And nGo one notices the daisies don't care

 About Em7gang related violence

 As long as they get enough Cair and water and sun

 They're all just fDine

Chorus

Em7Who would've thought it but life is finding a wGay

 Through this wasteland of cynics, concrete, and pDain

 There's a mEm7an down here somewhere between

 The GSaturday cartoons and the dirty magazines

 He's rDaising the dead in the graveyards

 Where Cwe've laid down our dreams

 His name is GHope

Verse 2

GHope stands high on the fifteenth floor

 On a CEm7hristmas tree perched about the ledge of a fortress

 Of Csteel that's trying too hard to be somebody's Ghome

 As it sees my attention from I-85 though the thEm7rows of the day

Were still writhing inside

 I Clifted my head as I drove home that night and knew

DEverything was gonna be fine

Chorus

Em7Who would've thought it but life is finding a wGay

 Through this wasteland of cynics, concrete, and pDain

 There's a mEm7an down here not worried or afraid

 That some pGolitician forgot all the promises he made

 And he's rDaising the dead in the graveyards

 Where Cwe've laid down our dreams

 His name is HGope

Verse 3

GCan you hear him outside he's been singing all night

 He's saying Em7when you gonna come out from behind

 These Cpaper thin walls, your cardboard box reDalities

Chorus

Em7Who would've thought it but life is finding a wGay

 Through this wasteland of cynics, concrete, and pDain

 There's a mEm7an down here not worried or afraid

 That some pGolitician forgot all the promises he made

 And he's rDaising the dreams in the graveyards

 Where Cwe've laid down our DEAD

 His name is HGope
