[C#m] [G#]
[C#m] [G#]
[C#] It's in the grain of the wood, it's in the needle's rust, it's in [B] the eagle's claw, [C#] it's
in the eyes you trust, it's in the jackal's dreams, it's in the sleet and the hail, it's
[G#] in the unmarked box that [C#m] came today in the mail.
It's in the dead man's pocket, it's in the child's first sin, it's [B] in the constitution
written [C#m] in very small print, it's in Colin Pyle's lies, it's in the shaman's trance,
it's [B] in the cell awaiting, and it's [C#m] in the best laid plans.
Now we could [B] cut and run, take [C#m] half the blame, [B] yeah don't stop now, [F#] that's why we came.
House gone up in [C#m] flames.
[C#] It's in the national anthem, it's in the scurrying roach, [G#] it's in the closed partition between
[C#m] first class and coach, it's in the relentless fever, it's in the lonely room, [G#] it's in the
hands of fate, and it's in [C#m] the pharaoh's tomb.
It's in the rich man's dreams, it's in the poor man's hands, [G#] it's in the body [C#]
bags [C#m] along
the Rio Grande, it's in the evening shade, it's on the cellet's tongue, it's in the [B] [G#] widow's
tears, and [C#m] it's in the miner's lungs.
[E] Now we could cut [B] and run, take [C#m] half the blame, [B] yeah don't stop now, that's why [C#] we came.
[C#m] House gone up in flames.

[C#] [F#]
[C#m] [D#] [C#m]
It's in the moon's dark spin, it's in the cloudless sky, it's [B] in St.
Peter's denial,
that he'd [C#] thrice deny, it's in the distant thunder, it's in the whispered prayer, [B] that
they won't find [G#] us hidden [C#m] here beneath the stairs.
So consider yourself lucky, and watch what you say, [G#] I got what I wanted, you [C#m] might get
the same, it's in bold print, nailed to the cathedral door, [G#] it's in the black coal pressure
[C#m] on the ocean floor.
Now we could [B] cut and run, take [C#m] half the blame, [B] yeah don't stop now, [F#] that's why we came.
Oh Lord, [D#] this house gone up in [C#m] flames.
