Like A Stone

[Intro] Em  D  B7  C

    Em      D
On a cobweb afternoon
   B7             C
In a room full of emptiness
        Em   D
By a freeway I confess
   B7             C
I was lost in the pages

Em         D
Of a book full of death
 B7               C
Reading how we'll die alone
    Em                   D
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
B7          C
Anywhere we want to go

Em        G       D    Em
In your   house I long to be
Em       G   D     Em
Room by room patiently
      C          Em     D      Em
I'll wait for you there like a stone
      C           Em    B7
I'll wait for you there alone

( Em  D  B7  C )

       Em      D
On my deathbed I will pray
   B7             C
To God and to the angels
     Em      D
To a pagan to anyone
    B7               C
Who will take me to Heaven
 Em        D
To a place I recall

B7             C
I was there so long ago
     Em                  D
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled
     B7        C
And there you led me on

Em      G       D      Em
In your house I long to be
Em       G   D   Em
Room by room patiently
      C          Em     D     Em
I'll wait for you there like a stone
      C           Em    B7
I'll wait for you there alone, alone

( Em  G  D Em )
( Em  G  D  Em )
( C  Em  D )
( Em  C  Em  B7 )

    C     G
And on I read
   B7              C
Until the day was gone
       Cm7       A
And I sat in regret
   B7                  Em
Of all the things that I've done
    C               G
For all that I've blessed
    B7              C
And all that I've wronged
     Cm7            A
In dreams until my death
        B7
I will wander on

Em      G       D      Em
In your house I long to be
Em       G   D   Em
Room by room patiently
      C          Em     D     Em
I'll wait for you there like a stone
      C           Em    B7           C
I'll wait for you there alone, alone
