House Gone Up In Flames Tab par The Nightwatchman

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

House gone up in flames

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

House gone up in flames

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

House gone up in flames
