How I do the intro: I'm positive it's wrong, but it sounds good enough for me.
for the low note, I just strum the A, D, and G string open and then go to Am for
the main note in the intro. When it hits the high point, I hit C. Find the strum
pattern yourself, I guess... This actually may not sound like Tom Morello's
version, but I'd rather play a song that uses more than 2 chords in the verse, so
I just added a couple more chords for those who can't quite sing like Tom Morello
AmIt's in the grain of the wood
It's in the nCeedle's rust
It's in the eDmagle's claw
It's in the eAmyes you trust
AmIt's in the jackal's dreams
It's in the sCleet and the hail
It's in the Dmunmarked box
That came tAmoday in the mail
AmIt's in the dead man's pocket
It's in the cChild's first sin
It's in the DmConstitution
Written in Amvery small print
AmIt's in Colin Powell's lies
It's in the Cshaman's trance
It's in the Dmcellar waiting
And it's in the Ambest laid plans
Chorus
We could Fcut and Crun
And take Dmhalf the Amblame
FDon't stop Cnow
That's why we Gcame
House gone up in flames
*Intro*
AmIt's in the National Anthem
It's in the Cscurrying roach
It's in the Dmclosed partition
'Tween first Amclass and coach
AmIt's in the relentless fever
It's in the Clonely room
It's in the Dmhands of fate
And it's in the Ampharaoh's tomb
AmIt's in the rich man's dreams
It's in the Cpoor man's hands
It's in the Dmbody bags
Along the AmRio Grande
AmIt's in the evening shade
It's on the Czealot's tongue
It's in the Dmwidow's tears
And it's in the Amminer's lungs
We could Fcut and rCun
And take Dmhalf the Amblame
FDon't stop Cnow
That's why we Gcame
House gone up in flames
*Intro*
AmIt's in the moon's dark spin
It's in the Ccloudless sky
It was in St. DmPeter's denial
That he'd Amthrice deny
AmIt's in the distant thunder
It's in the Cwhispered prayer
That they Dmwon't find us hidden here
AmBeneath the stairs
AmSo consider yourself lucky
And Cwatch what you say
I Dmgot what I wanted
You might Amget the same
AmIt's in the bold print nailed
To the Ccathedral door
It's in the Dmblack cold pressure
On the Amocean floor
We could Fcut and Crun
And take Dmhalf the Amblame
FDon't stop Cnow
That's why we Gcame
House gone up in flames
*Intro*
