[Intro]
C#m B G#m A X 2
[Verse]
C#m B
On a cobweb afternoon
G#m A
In a room full of emptiness
C#m B
By a freeway I confess
G#m A
I was lost in the pages
C#m B
Of a book full of death
G#m A
Reading how we'll die alone
C#m B
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
G#m A
Anywhere we want to go
[Chorus]
C#m E
In your house
B C#m
I long to be
C#m E
Room by room
B C#m
Patiently
A C#m
I'll wait for you there
B C#m
Like a stone
A C#m
I'll wait for you there
G# G#
Alone
[Interlude]
C#m B G#m A
[Verse]
C#m B
And on my death bed I will pray to
G#m A
The gods and the angels
C#m B
Like a pagan to anyone who will
G#m A
Take me to heaven
C#m B
Took to a place I recall
G#m A
I was there so long ago
C#m B
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled
G#m A
And there you led me on
[Chorus]
C#m E
In your house
B C#m
I long to be
C#m E
Room by room
B C#m
Patiently
A C#m
I'll wait for you there
B C#m
Like a stone
A C#m
I'll wait for you there
G# G#
Alone
G# G#
Alone
[Solo]
C#m E B C#m
C#m E B C#m
A C#m B C#m
A C#m G# G#
[Bridge]
A E
And on I read
G# A
Till the day was gone
Am F#
And I sat in regret
G# C#m
For all the things I've done
A E
For all that I've blessed
G# A
And all that I've wronged
Am F#
In dreams until my death
G# G#
I will wander on
[Chorus]
C#m E
In your house
B C#m
I long to be
C#m E
Room by room
B C#m
Patiently
A C#m
I'll wait for you there
B C#m
Like a stone
A C#m
I'll wait for you there
G# G#
Alone
G# G# A
Alone
