Come to My Window
-- Melissa Etheridge
Chorus
FCome Fto my Gwindow
FCrawl Finside, Gwait by the light of the moon
FCome Fto my Gwindow
I'll be home FsoFonG.
F F G
FI could dial the Fnumbers
Just to Glisten to your breath
FI would stand Finside my hell
And Ghold the hand of death
FYou don't know how Ffar I'd go
Just to Gease this precious ache
FYou don't know how Fmuch I'd give
Or how mGuch I can take
Just to reach DmyouF G
Just to reach DmyouF G
Oh to reach DmyouF G
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
DmI don't know what they think
FI don't care what they say
DmWhat do they know about this love Ganyway

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)):
