Lyrics

The (F5)wretch ed des ert sucks (Bb5)takes its form,

the (F5)jack al proud and (Bb5)tight.

In (F5)search of you,

I (Bb5)feel my way

through (F5)slow est heav ing night.

What ev er fear in vents,

I swear it makes no sense.

I reach out through the (Ebsus2)bor der fence.

Come down, come talk to me.

In the (F5)swirl ing, curl ing

(Bb5)storm of de sire un (F5)ut tered words hold fast.

With (F5)rep tile tongue

the (Bb5)light ning lash es

(F5)tow ers built to last.

Dark ness creeps in like a (Bbsus)thief and (Bb)of fers

no re (Bb5)lief.

Why (Gm7)are you

shak ing (Ebsus2)like a leaf?

Come (F5)on, come talk to me.

Oh (F)please,

talk

to (Bb)me,

won’t you (F)please come talk to (Bb)me.

We can un (F)lock this mis e (Bb)ry.

Come (C)on, come talk

to (Dm)me.

I (F)did not come to (Bb)steal,

this (F)all is so un real.

Can’t you (F)show me

how you (Bb)feel, now?

Come (C)on, come talk to me.

The You lie there with your eyes half (F7sus)closed

like there’s (Bb)no one

there at all.

There’s a (Gm7)ten sion

pull ing on your face,

come (F5)on, come talk to me.

Won’t you (F)please

talk

to (Bb)me?

If you’d (F)just

Un (F)block this mis e (Bb)ry,

if you’d (C)on ly talk to me.

Don’t you (F)ev er change your (Bb)mind,

now your (F)fu ture’s so de (Bb)fined.

And you act so

deaf, so (Bb)blind.

Come (C)on, come talk to me.

Can i mag ine the mo ment,

break ing out through the si lence.

All the things that we both might say.

And the heart it will not be de nied,

’til we’re both on the same damn side.

All the bar ri ers blown a way.

Said, (F)please

to (Bb)me,

won’t you (F)please come talk to (Bb)me?

Just (F)like it used to (Bb)be,

come (C)on, come talk to me.

Come talk to (Bb)me,

come talk to me.
