Verse 1
……..Gm F
On a cobweb afternoon
……Dm D#
In a room full of emptiness
……..Gm F
By a freeway I confess
……..Dm D#
I was lost in the pages
Gm F
Of a book full of death
Dm D#
Reading how we’ll die alone
……..Gm F
And if we’re good, we’ll lay to rest
Dm D#
Anywhere we want to go
Gm A#
In your house,
..F Gm
I long to be
Gm A#
Room by room,
F Gm
Patiently
…..D# Gm
I’ll wait for you there
F Gm
Like a stone
…..D# Gm
I’ll wait for you there

Alone
Verse 2
………………Gm F
And on my deathbed I will pray
………Dm D#
To the gods and the angels
……….Gm F
Like a pagan to anyone
…………..Dm D#
Who will take me to heaven
Gm F
To a place I recall
Dm D#
I was there so long ago
…….Gm
The sky was bruised
…….F
The wine was bled
…….Dm D#
And there you led me on
Gm A#
In your house,
..F Gm
I long to be
Gm A#
Room by room,

Patiently

I’ll wait for you there

Like a stone

I’ll wait for you there

……D# A#
And on I read
…..D7 D#
Until the day was gone
………D#m C7
And I sat in regret
….D7 Gm
Of all the things I’ve done
……D# A#
For all that I’ve blessed
…….D7 D#
And all that I’ve wronged

In dreams until my death

I will wander on

In your house,
..F Gm
I long to be

Room by room,

Patiently

I’ll wait for you there

Like a stone

I’ll wait for you there
