Like a Stone

[Intro] Am  G  Em7  F
        Am  G  Em7  F

[First Part]

      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'll die alone
Am                       G
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Em7          F
Anywhere we want to go

[Chorus]

Am       C       G       Am
In your house I long to be
         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
  E7
Alone

[Second Part]

       Am         G
On my deathbed I will pray
     Em7            F
To the gods and the angels
        Am      G
Like a pagan to 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
In your house I long to be
         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
  E7
Alone

[Bridge]

F           C
  And on I read
   E               F
Until the day was gone
       Fm        D
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             D
In dreams until my death
        E        E7
I will wonder on

[Chorus]

Am       C       G       Am
In your house I long to be
    ( G/B ) 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
  E7
Alone
