G [Verse]G A sundown on the San JoaquinD An old woman walks home from workD Another day in the fieldsG Another day in the dirt [Verse]G She lights a sacred candleC Next to a faded photographD And she says a prayer for a young manG Who fell between the cracks [Verse]G She stares at the photo of the young manD Who caused her so much painD In countless twelve round blood bathsG When Kid Hey Zeus was his name [Verse]G He was the pride of the valley Until the night he stayed down onC his backD He took the dive and he disappearedG Down between the cracksContinúa después del anuncio[Chorus]C G She said, "Jesus was just a poor boyC D On the wrong side of the tracksC Em He rose again, but not beforeD G He fell between the cracks" [Verse]G She re-reads all his lettersD That he wrote her from L.AD He said, "Please don't worry about meG I'm coming home again someday" [Verse]G Then she remembers the other storiesC That were whispered behind her backD About a shooting outside a grocery storeG Somewhere between the cracks [Chorus]C G She said, "Jesus was just a poor boyC D On the wrong side of the tracksC Em He rose again, but not beforeD G He fell between the cracks" [Instrumental]G C Em D G [Verse]G Sunrise on the San JoaquinD An old woman walks off to workD Another day in the fieldsG Another day in the dirt [Verse]G She stares at all the children Dropping rich men's fruit in theirC sacksD And she says a prayer for all the soulsG Trapped between the cracks [Chorus]C G She said, "Jesus was just a poor boyC D On the wrong side of the tracksC Em He rose again, but not beforeD G He fell between the cracksC Em And he rose again, but not beforeD G He fell between the cracks"
