_ _ Jessie, come home, [G] there's a hole in the bed [Gm] where we slept
Now it's growing [A] _ _ cold _ _
[Dm] Jessie, your face [F] in the place where we lay
[G] By the hearth, all apart, [C] it hangs on [E] my _ _ _ [A] heart
And I'm leaving the _ [Dm] long stairs
[F] _ [G] No, I'm not _ scared, [G] I'll [C] wait for [A] you _ _ _ _
_ [D] Hey, [Dm] Jessie, _ _ _ _ _ it's [G] _ lonely _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Come _ home
_ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ Jessie, the stairs [Bm] in the halls
Recalling your [Gm] stare, and I remember [A] too
_ _ [Dm] All the pictures are shaded and [F] fading in grey
[G] And I still set a [C] place at the table [E] at noon
_ _ And [A] I'm leaving the long [Dm] _ _ _
[F] stairs
[G] No, I'm not scared, I'll [C] wait for [A] you _ _ _ _
_ _ Hey, [Dm] Jessie, _ _ _ _ _ _ it's lonely
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ Come _ home

Jessie, the spread [Em] on the bed
It's like when [Gm] you [E] left, I kept it [A] for you
_ All [Dm] the blues and the greens [F] have been recently cleaned
[G] And are seemingly new
[C] Hey, Jessie, me and _ you
[A] We'll swallow the _ [Dm] long stairs
I'll [G] fix up my _ hair
[C] We'll sleep [A] unaware _ _ _ _ _ _
Hey, _ [D] Jessie
[Dm] Hey, _ _ _ _ _ Jessie, it's [G] lonely _ _
