Am G
1. 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'll die alone
Am G
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Em7 F
Anywhere we want to go
Am C G Am Asus4
R: In your house I long to be
Am C G Am
Room by room patiently
Am F Am
I'll wait for you there
G Am F Am
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
E E7
Alone
Am G Em7 F
2. On my deathbed I will pray
To the gods and the angels
to the pagans or 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
R: In your house I long to be...
F C
3. And on I read
E F
Until the day was done
Fm Dm
And I sat in regret
E Am
Of all the things I've done
F C
For all that I've blessed
E F
And all that I've wronged
Fm Dm7
In dreams until my death
E
I will wander on
R: In your house I long to be...
