Jesse - Janis Ian

[G] Jesse come home
There's a [D10sus4] hole in the bed
Where we [Dm6/F] slept
Now it's growing [E7] cold
Hey [Am] Jesse, your face
in the [Am7/G] place where we lay
By the [D9/10] hearth, all apart
[G] It hangs on my [B7] heart

And I'm [E] leaving the light on the [Am] stairs
No I'm not [D] scared, I wait for you [G] [E]
[Am] Hey Jesse, I'm [D] lonely come [G] home

Jesse, the floors and the boards
Recalling your step
And I remember too
All the pictures are fading
And shaded in grey
But I still set a place
On the table at noon

And I'm leaving the light on the stairs
No I'm not scared, I wait for you
Hey Jesse, I'm lonely come home

Jesse the spread on the bed
Is like when you left
I've kept it all for you
And all the blues and the greens
Have been recently cleaned
And they're seemingly new
Hey Jess' me and you

We'll swallow the light on the stairs
We'll do up my hair
We'll sleep unaware
Hey Jesse I'm lonely come home
