	Jesse come home, there's a	hole in the bed where we	slept; now it's growing	cold.

	Jesse your face in the	place where we lay by the	hearth all apart it	hangs on my	heart

	A7	Dm
And I'm	leaving the light on the	stairs.

	G7	C	A7		Dm	G7	C
No I'm not	scared; I wait for	you,		hey	Jesse I'm	lonely come	home!

Jesse the stairs in the halls, recalling Your step; and I remember too.

All the pictures are fading and shaded in grey And 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 Jessie I'm lonely come home!

Jesse the spread on the bed, It's like when you left, I kept it for you.

All the blues and the greens have been recently cleaned And are seemingly new; hey Jess, me and you.

We'll swallow the light on the stairs.

I'll fix up my hair, we'll sleep unawares, hey Jesse, I'm lonely, come home!
