From the recording Naked and Falling
Lyrics
Cracks Just Getting Bigger Copyright all rights reserved J.J. McManus 11-9-14
Intro: Am G /:
Em G
Well there’s something else on your mind
F Am
I can feel it like it was on mine
F C G
And it feels like there’s ghosts talking in whispers in this old room
F Dm Am
and the cracks just get bigger on the walls
C G
Old lovers taught us how to be frail
and that love really just meant jail
F Am G
Long before we ever met each other we learned how to run
now your favorite dress is all ripped apart
from all the times you followed your heart
I know I should have changed the bedsheets had a feeling you’d come
chorus
our clothes are tossed around the floor
I play a record side you haven’t heard before
we talk about sex, music, art and social justice for the oppressed
You know you know that nothing never lasts
I touch you without holding nothing back
Its so much easier to be free when you’re falling all apart
bridge:
F C G Dm
I had a dream that a bear came to the bed while we were sleeping
F Dm
woke up up and told you about it in the middle of the night
Am
you said bears powerful medicine
chorus
