I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
D
How come when the local clergy calls
G D
You tell me that you shouldn't wear black?

What kind of bread are you gonna bake

With that hemlock in your spice rack?

How come, how come

How come, how come

Hint: When trying to work out the intro lick, do an open D chord by barring
the bottom three strings with your index finger at the second fret and
fretting the B string at the third fret with your middle finger; this will
leave your ring finger free to fret the G string at the fourth fret ; the
lick is based around the notes of the D chord (D,F#, and A) and this
additional note (B) if you maintain the D chord shape the lick should come
together.
