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
