Intro: Em  D  B7  C 

    Em      D 
On a cobweb afternoon 
   B7             C 
In a room full of emptiness 
        Em   D 
By a freeway I confess 
   B7             C 
I was lost in the pages 

Em         D 
Of a book full of death 
 B7               C 
Reading how we'll die alone 
    Em                   D 
And if we're good we'll lay to rest 
B7          C 
Anywhere we want to go 

Em        G       D    Em 
In your   house I long to be 
Em       G   D     Em 
Room by room patiently 
      C          Em     D      Em 
I'll wait for you there like a stone 
      C           Em    B7 
I'll wait for you there alone 

( Em  D  B7  C ) 

       Em      D 
On my deathbed I will pray 
   B7             C 
To God and to the angels 
     Em      D 
To a pagan to anyone 
    B7               C 
Who will take me to Heaven 
 Em        D 
To a place I recall 
B7             C 
I was there so long ago 
     Em                  D 
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled 
     B7        C 
And there you led me on 

Em      G       D      Em 
In your house I long to be 
Em       G   D   Em 
Room by room patiently 
      C          Em     D     Em 
I'll wait for you there like a stone 
      C           Em    B7 
I'll wait for you there alone, alone

    C     G 
And on I read 
   B7              C 
Until the day was gone 
       Cm7       A 
And I sat in regret 
   B7                  Em 
Of all the things that I've done 
    C               G 
For all that I've blessed 
    B7              C 
And all that I've wronged 
     Cm7            A 
In dreams until my death 
        B7 
I will wander on 

Em      G       D      Em 
In your house I long to be 
Em       G   D   Em 
Room by room patiently 
      C          Em     D     Em 
I'll wait for you there like a stone 
      C           Em    B7           C 
I'll wait for you there alone, alone
