Verse: [Gm, F, Dm, D#]
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
(chorus)
D# A# F Gm, D# A# F Gm
In your house I long to be, Room by room patiently
I’ll wait for you there, Like a stone
D# A# [D]
I’ll wait for you there, 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 wind was black
And there you led me on
(chorus) – (solo)
And on I read, Until the day was done
And I sat in regret, Of all the things I’ve done
For all that I’ve blessed, And all that I’ve wronged
In dreams until my death, I will wander on
(chorus)
