Lucy Kaplansky singing The Kid (Cry Cry Cry) Lafayette IN chords
Start Jamming...
What [Bb] does he throw at me?
If I know them?
Huh?
[A]
I can get to that.
[G] [A] Alright, here we go.
Let's see if I remember it.
Remembering songs is not a given anymore.
So I was in this group quite a few years ago actually, with Darla Williams and Richard Chenault, called Cry Cry Cry.
We made an album of mostly other people's songs and every single one of them was sad, hence the name.
Cry Cry Cry.
It's a great, great song.
I'm the [A] kid who [Bm]
ran away [G] with the circus.
[D] Now I'm [E]
watering [G] the field.
[A] [D] But I [A]
sometimes [Bm] lie [G] awake in sawdust.
[D] Dreaming
[A] I'm [G] in a suit [Am] of white.
[Bm]
Late at night in the empty big time.
I'm all [G] alone on the high wire.
[Bm] Oh, he's [E] working without an end this [A] time.
He's a real death defiant.
I'm a
[Am] kid who [Bm] always looked [G] out the window.
[D]
Failing [A] tests in [G] geography.
[A]
[D] But [A] I've seen things [Bm]
far beyond [G] just the schoolyard.
[D] It's [A]
chores [G] of exile.
[Am] [Bm]
They're the [G] spires of the Turkish [Bm] Empire.
Six months since [G] we made landfall.
[Bm] Riding low [E] in the spice of India.
[A] Pass through Gibraltar, we'll reach there.
[Em] [C]
[A]
[Em]
[C] [G]
[A]
[D] I'm a [Am]
kid [A] who [Bm] thought someday [G] we'd be lovers.
[D]
Always [Am] held up [G] that climb.
[A]
[D] Time was [A] talking.
[Bm]
Guess I [G] just wasn't listening.
[A] No [Am] surprise [G] if you know me [A] well.
[Bm]
As we're [G] walking toward the train [Bm] station, there's a whispering rainfall.
[Bm] Cross the [A] boulevard, [E] slip your hand in mine.
In the distance, the train calls.
[D]
I'm a [Am] kid who [Bm] has this [G] habit of dreaming.
[D]
[E] Gets me [G] in trouble all [A] the time.
[D] But the [E]
truth is, [Bm] I could [A] no [G] more stop dreaming [D] than I [E] could make [G] a mom.
