Jesse come on, [A#] _ [D#m] it's a horrible [F#] world where [A] we live, _ _ and [G#] it's [F#] growing [G#] cold.
_ _ [C#m] _ Hey Jesse, your face in the [E] place where we lay by the [F#] _ hearth, all apart.
[B] _ It [D#] hangs on my heart, [G#] and I'm [C#] keeping [G#] the [A] line [G#] _ [C#m] of stare. _ _
No, I'm [F#] not scared. _ _
I'll [B] wait for [G#] you.

[B] _ _ _ Jesse.
The floors _ [D#m] and the walls _ [F#] recalling [D#] your stare, _ and I [G#] remember too. _

[D#m] _ [G#] _ [C#m] _ All the blues and the [E] greens have been recently cleaned, [C#m] _ [F#] and are seemingly new.
[B] Hey Jesse, [D#] me and you [G#] will [C#m] [G#] swallow our _ _ [C#m] _ _ stares, and [F#] fix up my hair, _ _ [B] and sleep _ [G#] on a _ wedge.
[C#m] Hey Jesse, [F#] I'm lonely. _ _ _
_ _ [B] Come home.
