[Chorus]
 
G    C     D
Come to my window
G     C       D
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
G    C     D
Come to my window
             G C D
I'll be home soon.
 
 
[Verse]
 
C                G
I could dial the numbers
        D
Just to listen to your breath
C             G
I would stand inside my hell
    D
And hold the hand of death
C                  G
You don't know how far I'd go
        D
Just to ease this precious ache
C                  G
You don't know how much I'd give
        D
Or how much I can take
              Em C
Just to reach you
         D
Just to reach you
            Em C D
Oh to reach you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G    C     D
Come to my window
G     C       D
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
G    C     D
Come to my window
             G C D
I'll be home soon.
 
 
[Verse]
C               G
Keeping my eyes open
       D
I can not afford to sleep
C           G
Giving away promises
       D
I know that I can't keep
C                 G
Nothing fills the blackness
         D
That has seeped into my chest
C                G
I need you in my blood
         D
I am foresaking all the rest
        Em      C
Just to reach you
        D
Just to reach you
        Em  C   D
Oh to reach you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G    C     D
Come to my window
G     C       D
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
G    C     D
Come to my window
             G C D
I'll be home soon.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Em
I don't know what they think
C
I don't care what they say
Am                                D
What do they know about this love anyway
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G    C     D
Come to my window
G     C       D
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
G    C     D
Come to my window
             G C D
I'll be home soon.

[Verse]
 
C                 G
I would dial the numbers
         D
Just to listen to your breath
    C                G
And I would stand inside my hell
     D
And hold the hand of death
 C                  G
You don't know how far I'd go
         D
Just to ease this precious ache
 C                  G
You don't know how much I'd give
    D
Or how much I can take
         Em       C         D                 Em       C  D
Just to reach you, just to reach you, oh, to reach you
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G    C     Am7    D
Come to my window
 G       C    Am7          D            G
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
     C     Am7      D
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
 
C  G  D
 
 
[Verse]
 
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]
 
G    C     Am7    D
Come to my window
 G       C    Am7          D            G
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
     C     Am7      D
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
 
C  G  D

Great tab! Melissa also plays it on a 12 string if I recall correctly, but I like to arrange it for 6, a beautiful song!
