Verse:
[Em]I'm the [D]latest [C]apparitio[D]n
[Em]Cutting [D]slices [C]in the nig[D]ht
[Em]I come t[D]hrough witho[C]ut permissi[D]on
[Em]Moving [D]in and [C]out of sigh[D]t
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:
[G]I'm the gold in [D]California
[C]I'm the well in [D]Mexico
[G]Like the vultures [D]in the valley
[C]I will wait 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.
