Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Hear me tell  how the hounds  of the bankers
 Took my mind  to the freaking  ridge
 How the claims  and the howling  reminders
 Kept my eyes  from their rest  at night
 When the dogs  of the bank  are upon  me
 And they've come  to repossess  my car
 I'll be found  at the base  of the canyon
 I'll be torn  from the wreck  of the motor
 All you men  that live  for the evening
 Seven hours  when the light  forgives
 And you race  like a dog  when he's dreaming
 And you wait  for the yank  of the hook
 Understand  that the chains are magical
 And they strain  to keep you where  you are
 I'll be found  at the base  of the canyon
 I'll be torn  from the wreck  of the motor
 Let the Crane  take back  the engine
 Let the crane  take back  the wheel
 And I feel  that the world  should  come with me
 When I ride  to the crack in the earth  (x2)
 Hear me tell  how you walk  into a dreamland
 With a line  from the back  of your head
 To the wheel  that revolves  at the center
 And you wait  for the yank  of the hook
 When the dogs  of the bank are upon  me
 And they've come  to repossess  my car
 I'll be found  at the base  of the canyon
 I'll be torn  from the wreck  of the motor
 Let the Crane  take back  the engine
 Let the crane  take back  the wheel
 And I feel  that the world  should come with  me
 When I ride  to the crack in the earth  (x2)
 When I ride  to the crack in the earth,  ah ha!
 quick
 -  -  -  - (  -  - )  -  -  riff down scale to
 Let the Crane  take back  the engine
 Let the crane  take back  the wheel
 And I feel  that the world  should  come with me
 When I ride  to the crack  in the  earth
 Oh I feel  you should  come with me
 Yes I feel  you should  be here
 And I feel  that the world  should  come with me
 When I ride  to the crack in the earth

[D] [Dm] [Am]    [G] [F] [C]
Hear me te[D]ll how the [Dm]hounds of the b[Am]ankers
Took my mi[G]nd to the fr[F]eaking ri[C]dge
How the cl[D]aims and the ho[Dm]wling remin[Am]ders
Kept my ey[G]es from their re[F]st at ni[C]ght

When the dog[D]s of the b[Dm]ank are upo[Am]n me
And they've c[G]ome to rep[F]ossess my c[C]ar
I'll be f[D]ound at the b[Dm]ase of the [Am]canyon
I'll be t[G]orn from the [F]wreck of the [C]motor

All you [D]men that l[Dm]ive for the [Am]evening
Seven hou[G]rs when the lig[F]ht forgi[C]ves
And you ra[D]ce like a d[Dm]og when he's dre[Am]aming
And you wa[G]it for the ya[F]nk of the ho[C]ok

Understa[D]nd that the chains are ma[E]gical
And they str[Am]ain to keep you wh[G]ere you are[C]
I'll be fo[D]und at the [Dm]base of the [Am]canyon
I'll be [G]torn from the w[F]reck of the m[C]otor

Let the C[G]rane take b[F]ack the en[C]gine
Let the c[G]rane take b[F]ack the wh[C]eel
And I fee[G]l that the [F]world shou[C]ld come with me
When I ri[E]de to the crack in the [A]earth (x2)

Hear me t[D]ell how you w[Dm]alk into a d[Am]reamland
With a l[G]ine from the b[F]ack of your h[C]ead

To the whe[D]el that rev[Dm]olves at the [Am]center
And you wa[G]it for the y[F]ank of the h[C]ook

When the do[D]gs of the bank are upo[E]n me
And they've com[Am]e to reposs[G]ess my ca[C]r
I'll be fo[D]und at the [Dm]base of the c[Am]anyon
I'll be to[G]rn from the w[F]reck of the [C]motor

Let the C[G]rane take b[F]ack the eng[C]ine
Let the c[G]rane take b[F]ack the whe[C]el
And I fee[G]l that the [F]world should come w[C]ith me
When I rid[E]e to the crack in the e[A]arth (x2)
When I rid[E]e to the crack in the e[A]arth, ah ha!
