Tuned down 1/2 step 

D5
It's in the grain of the wood
It's in the needle's rust
C5
It's in the eagle's claw
D5
It's in the eyes you trust
It's in the jackal's dreams
It's in the sleet and the hail
C5
It's in the unmarked box
D5
That came today in the mail
It's in the dead man's pocket
It's in the child's first sin
C5
It's in the Constitution
D5
Written in very small print
It's in Colin Powell's lies
It's in the shaman's trance
C5
It's in the cellar waiting
D5 minor
And it's in the best laid plans
F5             C5
We could cut and run
D5
And take half the blame
C5
Don't stop now
G5
That's why we came

House gone up in flames

D5
It's in the National Anthem
It's in the scurrying roach
C5
It's in the closed partition
D5
'Tween first class and coach
It's in the relentless fever
It's in the lonely room
C5
It's in the hands of fate
D5
And it's in the pharaoh's tomb
It's in the rich man's dreams
It's in the poor man's hands
C5
It's in the body bags
D5
Along the Rio Grande
It's in the evening shade
It's on the zealot's tongue
C5
It's in the widow's tears
D5 minor
And it's in the miner's lungs
F5             C5
We could cut and run
D5
And take half the blame
C5
Don't stop now
G5
That's why we came

House gone up in flames

D5
It's in the moon's dark spin
It's in the cloudless sky
C5
It was in St. Peter's denial
D5
That he'd thrice deny
It's in the distant thunder
It's in the whispered prayer
C5
That they won't find us hidden here
D5
Beneath the stairs
So consider yourself lucky
And watch what you say
C5
I got what I wanted
D5
You might get the same
It's in the bold print nailed
To the cathedral door
C5
It's in the black cold pressure
D5
On the ocean floor
F5             C5
We could cut and run
And take half the blame
Don't stop now
That's why we came

House gone up in flames
