ESTROFA

 

On a cobweb 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 to go

CORO

 

     Gm   A#      F     Gm

In your house I long to be

   Gm   A#   F      Gm

Room by room patiently

       D#           Gm    F     Gm

I'll wait for you there like a stone

       D#           Gm    D

I'll wait for you there alone, alone

ESTROFA

 

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 wine was bled

 

And there you led me on

SOLO

 

Gm A# F Gm (x2)

INTER

 

     D#     A#m

And on I read

   D              D#

Until the day was gone

       A#      C

And I sat in regret

    D                     Gm

Of all the things I've done

    D#                A#m

For all that I've blessed

    D                 D#

And all that I've wronged

       A#         C

In dreams until my death

        D

I will wander on

 

CORO

 

     Gm   A#      F     Gm

In your house I long to be

Room by room patiently 

       D#           Gm    F     Gm

I'll wait for you there like a stone 

       D#           Gm    D      D#

I'll wait for you there alone, alone
