Tabbed by: creamad

Tuning: Standard

I use my pinky to mute the bottom e string and my thumb to mute the top E string 
the song.  Also, I added the strumming pattern for the Intro, Chorus, & Outro.  This is my 
tab so I hope it's helpful.  Enjoy!

Verse 1:
            Asus
It's in the grain of the wood
It's in the needle's rust
            Cadd9
It's in the eagle's claw
            Asus
It's in the eyes you trust
It's in the jackal's dreams
It's in the sleet and the hail
            Cadd9
It's in the unmarked box
          Asus
That came today in the mail
It's in the dead man's pocket
It's in the child's first sin
            Cadd9
It's in the Constitution
           Asus
Written in very small print
It's in Colin Powell's lies
It's in the shaman's trance
            Cadd9
It's in the cellar waiting
                Asus
And it's in the best laid plans

Chorus:
         Fmaj7   C
We could cut and run
                  Asus
And take half the blame
C
Don't stop now
              G6
That's why we came

House gone up in flames

Verse 2:
            Asus
It's in the National Anthem
It's in the scurrying roach
            Cadd9
It's in the closed partition
       Asus
'Tween first class and coach
It's in the relentless fever
It's in the lonely room
            Cadd9
It's in the hands of fate
                Asus
And it's in the pharaoh's tomb
It's in the rich man's dreams
It's in the poor man's hands
            Cadd9
It's in the body bags
          Asus
Along the Rio Grande
It's in the evening shade
It's on the zealot's tongue
            Cadd9
It's in the widow's tears
                Asus
And it's in the miner's lungs

Chorus:
         Fmaj7   C
We could cut and run
                  Asus
And take half the blame
C
Don't stop now
              G6
That's why we came

Verse 3:
Asus
It's in the moon's dark spin
It's in the cloudless sky
             Cadd9
It was in St Peter's denial
          Asus
That he'd thrice deny
It's in the distant thunder
It's in the whispered prayer
                Cadd9
That they won't find us hidden here
Asus
Beneath the stairs
So consider yourself lucky
And watch what you say
  Cadd9
I got what I wanted
          Asus
You might get the same
It's in the bold print nailed
To the cathedral door
            Cadd9
It's in the black cold pressure
       Asus
On the ocean floor

Chorus:
         Fmaj7   C
We could cut and run
                  Asus
And take half the blame
C
Don't stop now
              G6
That's why we came (Oh Lord!)

House gone up in flames
