On a cold wet, afternoon in a room
full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages
Of a book, full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go
G5Bb5F5G5
In your house I long to be
G5Bb5F5G5
Room by room patiently
Eb5G5
I'll wait for you there
F5G5
Like a stone
Eb5G5
I'll wait for you there
D5D5
Alone
On my deathbed, I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to heaven
To a place, I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you led me on
Solo:
EbBb
And on I read
D7Eb
Until the day was gone
EbmC7
And I sat in regret
D7Gm
Of all the things I've done
EbBb
For all that I've blessed
D7Eb
And all that I've wronged
EbmC7
In dreams until my death
D5D5
I will wander on
G5Bb5F5G5
In your house I long to be
G5Bb5F5G5
Room by room patiently
Eb5G5
I'll wait for you there
F5G5
Like a stone
Eb5G5
I'll wait for you there
D5Eb5
Alone
