Introduction:
A5 G5
On a cobweb, afternoon in a room
E5 F5
full of emptiness
A5 G5
By a freeway I confess
E5 F5
I was lost in the pages
A5 G5
Of a book, full of death
E5 F5
Reading how we'll die alone
A5 G5
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
E5 F5
Anywhere we want to go
A5 G5 E5 F5
In your house I long to be
A5 G5 E5 F5
Room by room patiently
A5 G5
I'll wait for you there
E5 F5
Like a stone
A5 G5
I'll wait for you there
E5 F5
Alone
A5 G5
On my deathbed, I will pray
E5 F5
To the gods and the angels
A5 G5
Like a pagan to anyone
E5 F5
Who will take me to heaven
A5 G5
To a place, I recall
E5 F5
I was there so long ago
A5 G5
The sky was bruised
E5
The wine was bled
F5
And there you led me on
A5 G5 E5 F5
In your house I long to be
A5 G5 E5 F5
Room by room patiently
A5 G5
I'll wait for you there
E5 F5
Like a stone
A5 G5
I'll wait for you there
G#5
Alone Alone
A5 E5
And on I read
G#5 A5
Until the day was gone
F#5
And I sat in regret
G#5 C#5
Of all the things I've done
A5 E5
For all that I've blessed
G#5 A5
And all that I've wronged
F#5
In dreams until my death
G#5
I will wander on
A5 G5 E5 F5
In your house I long to be
A5 G5 E5 F5
Room by room patiently
A5 G5
I'll wait for you there
E5 F5
Like a stone
A5 G5
I'll wait for you there
G#5
Alone Alone
