Come Talk to Me

The (F5)wretched desert sucks (Bb5)takes its form,

the (F5)jackal proud and (Bb5)tight.

In (F5)search of you, I (Bb5)feel my way

through (F5)slowest heaving night.

(Bb)Whatever fear invents, I swear it makes no sense.

(Gm7)I reach out through the (Ebsus2)border fence.

Come down, come talk to me.

In the (F5)swirling, curling (Bb5)storm of desire (F5)unuttered words hold fast.

With reptile tongue the (Bb5)lightning lashes (F5)towers built to last.

(Bb)Darkness creeps in like a (Bbsus)thief and (Bb)offers no (Bb5)relief.

Why (Gm7)are you

shaking (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 (F)unlock this (Bb)misery.

Come (C)on, come talk to (Dm)me.

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

this (F)all is so unreal.

Can't you show me

how you (Bb)feel, now?

Come (C)on, come talk to me.

The (Bb)You lie there with your eyes half (F7sus)closed like there's (Bb)no one there at all.

There's a (Gm7)tension

pulling on your face, come (F5)on,

come talk to me.

Won't you (F)please talk to (Bb)me?

If you'd (F)just talk to (Bb)me.

(F)Unblock this (Bb)misery,

if you'd (C)only talk to me.

Don't you (F)ever change your (Bb)mind,

now your (F)future's so (Bb)defined.

And you act so

deaf, so blind.

Come (C)on, come talk to me.

(F5)Can imagine the moment,

(Bb)breaking out through the silence.

(F5)All the things that we both might say.

And the heart it will not be denied,

(Bb)'til we're both on the same damn side.
