Like A Stone

 
Am  G  Em7  F
Am  G  Em7  F
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
     Am       G
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 die alone
Am                      G
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Em7            F
   Anywhere we wanna go
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am        C       G       Am Asus2
  In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
     F            Am
I'll wait for you there
G      Am         F            Am
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
 E
Alone
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
Am  G  Em7  F
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
      Am       G
On my deathbed I will pray
   Em7              F
To the gods and the angels
       Am     G
To the pagans or anyone
    Em7             F
Who will take me to heaven
Am         G
To a place I recall
Em7            F
I was there so long ago
    Am
The sky was bruised
    G
The wine was bled
    Em7              F
And there you led me on
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am        C       G       Am Asus2
  In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
     F            Am
I'll wait for you there
G        Am       F            Am
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
 E        E
Alone    Alone
 
 
[Bridge]
 
    F    C
And on I read
E                   F
  Until the day was gone
      Fm         D
And I fell in regret
    E                   Am
For all the things I've done
F                   C
  For all that I've blessed
    E             F
And all that I've wronged
   Fm              D
In dreams until my death
  E
I wander on
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am        C    F           Am Asus2
  In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
     F            Am
I'll wait for you there
G      Am         F             Am
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
 E        E    F
Alone    Alone
