Come to My Window -- Melissa Etheridge Chorus Come to my window Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon Come to my window I'll be home soon. I could dial the numbers Just to listen to your breath I would stand inside my hell And hold the hand of death You don't know how far I'd go Just to ease this precious ache You don't know how much I'd give Or how much I can take Just to reach you Just to reach you Oh to reach you Chorus Keeping my eyes open I can not afford to sleep Giving away promises I know that I can't keep Nothing fills the blackness That has seeped into my chest I need you in my blood I am foresaking all the rest Just to reach you Just to reach you Oh to reach you Chorus I don't know what they think I don't care what they say What do they know about this love anyway Chorus -- Melissa plays this song in the key of 'G'; I put a capo on the 3rd or 4th fret to accommodate my *maleness* (this puts it in the key of 'Bb' (3rd fret) or B (4th fret)): Come to My Window -- Melissa Etheridge CHORUS: (softly and slowly as INTRO) Come to my window Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon Come to my window, I'll be home soon (4 times, aggressively) I would dial the numbers Just to listen to your breath And I would stand inside my hell And hold the hand of death You don't know how far I'd go Just to ease this precious ache You don't know how much I'd give Or how much I can take Just to reach you, just to reach you, oh, to reach you CHORUS Keeping my eyes open, I cannot afford to sleep Giving away promises, I know that I can't keep Nothing fills the blackness that has seeped into my chest I need you in my blood, I am foresaking all the rest Just to reach you, just to reach you, oh, to reach you CHORUS I don't care what they they think I don't care what they say What do they know about this love anyway (twice, arpeggiated, not strummed) Come, come to my window, I'll be home I'll be home, I'll be home, I'm comin' home CHORUS Sunnyvale, CA
