Intro -x2-: Am  G  Em7  F
 
Verse:
 
     Am       G
On a cobweb afternoon
     Em7          F
In a room full of emptiness
     Am      G
By a freeway I confess
   Em7            F
I was lost in the pages
Am        G
Of a book full of death
Em7            F
Reading how we die alone
Am                      G
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Em7            F
   Anywhere we wanna go
 
Chorus:
 
Am        C      G        Am Asus2
  In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
     F            Am
I'll wait for you there
G      Am         F            Am
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
 E  E7
Alone
 
Interlude: Am  G  Em7  F
 
Verse:
      Am       G
On my deathbed I will pray
   Em7              F
To the gods and the angels
       Am     G
To the pagans or anyone
    Em7             F
Who will take me to heaven
Am         G
To a place I recall
Em7            F
I was there so long ago
    Am
The sky was bruised
    G
The wine was bled
    Em7              F
And there you led me on
 
Chorus:
Am        C      G        Am Asus2
  In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
     F            Am
I'll wait for you there
G        Am       F            Am
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
 E  E7    E  E7
Alone    Alone
 
Bridge:
    F    C
And on I read
E7                  F
  Until the day was gone
      Fm        D7
And I sat in regret
    E7                  Am
For all the things I've done
F                   C
  For all that I've blessed
    E7            F
And all that I've wronged
   Fm              D7
In dreams until my death
       E       E7
I will wander on
 
 
Chorus:
 
Am        C      G        Am Asus2
  In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
     F            Am
I'll wait for you there
G       Am        F            Am
 Like a stone I'll wait for you there
 E  E7    E  E7   F
Alone    Alone
