Em D
On a cobweb afternoon
B7 C
In a room full of emptiness

By a freeway I confess

Reading how we die alone
Em D
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
B7 C
Anywhere we wanna go
[Refrão]

In your house I long to be

Room by room patiently

I'll wait for you there

Like a stone I'll wait for you there

On my deathbed I will pray

To the gods and the angels

To the pagans or anyone
B7 C
Who will take me to heaven

To a place I recall

I was there so long ago
Em
The sky was bruised

The wine was bled
B7 C
And there you led me on
[Refrão]

And on I read

Until the day was gone

And I sat in regret

And all that I've wronged

In dreams until my death
B7
I will wander on
