Jesse

 
G     C        G         C 
Jesse sees her life before her 
G        C      G      Am 
Standing naked in the dark 
G               Am         G          Am 
Here comes the sun, pull down the curtain 
Am                     Dm 
For it may touch and leave a mark 
 

 
G       C        G      C 
Children try to talk together 
G           C          G       Am 
They simply cannot catch the phrase 
G        Am            G            Am 
Sometimes laughter is somehow murdered 
Am         G          Am      G    
Shattered glass a thousand ways 
 

 
         C        G       C 
Children sing with fantasy words 
G       C        G      C 
Playin' little backyard games 
G      C       G            C 
Jesse sings to them without words 
Am                  Dm 
And they love her until she 
        G 
complains

G           C        G         C 
But then again, her youth has ended 
G              C       G         Am 
She's walking where she used to crawl 
G       C      G        Am 
Cryin' now before their laughter 
Am                   Dm       G 
Children finished first of all
