There’s a (G)hole in the bed where we (Gm)slept;

Hey, (Dm)Jes se, your face in the (Dm)place where we lay by the hearth

No, I’m not scared.

I wait for (C)you.

Hey, (Dm)Jes se, I’m (G7)lone ly, come (C6)home.

Jes se, the floors and the boards

All the (Dm)blues and the greens have been (Dm)re cent ly cleaned and it’s (G7)seem ing ly new.

Hey, (C)Jess, me and (E7)you, we’ll (A7)swal low the light on the (Dm)stairs,

Hey, (Dm)Jes se, I’m so (G7)lone ly, come (Csus2)home.
