Capo: 1

From: steidlr@ccmail.orst.edu (Bob Steidl) Raven In the Storm written by John Gorka and Geoff Bartley performed by John Gorka from "Land of the Bottom Line" He plays this with a capo on the 1st fret (or tunes up). I've chorded it as if played in the first position. Intro: Em D C D (4x) |-------------------------------------| h = hammer on |-------------------------------------| |----5-h353----0----------------------| Played with |-3----------5---3---6--h565--0--2----| capo on 1st fret |----------------------------------3--| Solo is similar |-------------------------------------| Verse:

^EmI'm the ^Dlatest ^Capparitio^Dn ^EmCutting ^Dslices ^Cin the nig^Dht

^EmI come t^Dhrough witho^Cut permissi^Don ^EmMoving ^Din and ^Cout of sigh^Dt

I'm the tapping on your shoulder I'm the raven in the storm I'll take shelter in your rafters I'm the shiver when you're warm Chorus:

^GI'm the gold in ^DCalifornia ^CI'm the well in ^DMexico

Like th^Ge vultures in the ^Dvalley I will ^Cwait for you to go

Em D C D (4x) I'm the gypsy in your pocket I'm the horseman in your dreams I'm the reason dogs are barking I'm the hand that stops the scream I'm the baby's cry that isn't I am the distant relative I'm the scratching in the ceiling I'm advice you shouldn't give Chorus: I'm the ghost of a traveling salesman My foot will be there in your door Though I can walk through walls and windows I will knock just like before I'm the darkness in your daughter I'm the spot beneath the skin I'm the scarlet on the pavement I am the broken heart within Chorus: I won't take a train to nowhere I will not touch just anyone Ask a stranger why I'm waiting In the chamber of a gun Hint: At first, the strum pattern in the Verse/Intro seemed somewhat awkward. Hitting all the "D" chords on the UP stroke rather than the DOWN stroke seems right. Bob Steidl <steidlr@ccmail.orst.edu>
