Like A Stone

Cornell Chris

   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...
