[Intro]
Em D B7 C
Em D B7 C
[Verse 1]
Em D B7 C
On a cobweb afternoon in a room full of emptiness
Em D B7 C
By a freeway, I confess I was lost in the pages
Em D B7 C
Of a book full of death, reading how we'll die alone
Em D B7 C
And if we're good, we'll lay to rest anywhere we want to go
[Chorus]
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
[Instrumental]
Em D B7 C
[Verse 2]
Em D B7 C
And on my deathbed I will pray to the gods and the angels
Em D B7 C
To the pagans or anyone who will take me to heaven
Em D B7 C
To a place I recall, I was there so long ago
Em D B7 C
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled, and there you led me on
[Chorus]
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 B7
I'll wait for you there alone, alone
[Instrumental]
Em G D Em
C Em B7 B7
[Bridge]
C G B7 C
And on I read until the day was gone
Cm A7 B7 Em
And I sat in regret for all the things I've done
C G B7 C
For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged
Cm A7 B7
In dreams until my death I will wander on
[Chorus]
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 B7
I'll wait for you there alone, alone
[Outro]
C
