[Intro]
Cadd9 Em7/B Edim/Bb A7 Dm G7 Cadd9
 
 
[Verse 1]
Cadd9
Jesse come home
          Em7/B
There's a hole in the bed
         Edim/Bb
Where we slept
                  A7
Now it's growing cold
Dm
Jesse, your face
        Dm/C
In the place where we lay
       G7
By the hearth, all apart
    C           E
It hangs on my heart
          A7                      Dm
And I'm leaving the light on the stairs
           G7                  C  A7
No I'm not scared - I wait for you
    Dm         G7           Cadd9
Hey Jesse, I'm lonely, come home
 
 
[Verse 2]
Cadd9                    Em7/B
Jesse, the stairs in the hall,
                Edim/Bb
Recalling your step
                A7
And I remember, too
        Dm
All the pictures are shaded
     Dm/C
And fading in grey
       G7
But I still set a place
        C       E
On the table at noon
         A7                    Dm
And I'm leaving a light on the stairs
           G7                  C A7
No I'm not scared - I wait for you
     Dm.       G7            Cadd9
Hey Jesse, It’s lonely, come home
 
 
[Interlude]
Cadd9 Em7/B Edim/Bb A7 Dm G7 Cadd9
 
 
[Verse 3]
Cadd9                    Em7/B
Jesse, the spread on the bed
                   Edim/Bb
It’s like when you left
                    A7
I've kept it up for you
Dm
And all the blues and the greens
           Dm/C
Have been recently cleaned
          G7
And it's seemingly new
     C           E
Hey Jes, me and you
       A7                      Dm
We'll swallow the light on the stairs
               G7
I’ll fix up my hair
               C A7
we’ll sleep unaware
    Dm         G7          Cadd9
 Hey Jesse, I'm lonely, come home
