Intro: 
------ 
 
A D , A D , A D , E Gbm {repeat} 
 
D A 
Verse: 
------ 
The wretched desert takes it's form ,  
    A               D/A 
The jackal proud and tight, 
    A  
In search of you I feel my way, 
   A               D/A 
Through slowest heaving night 
        A 
   Whatever fear invents,  
D           Dsus4 
I swear it make no sense 
  A 
   I reach out through the border fence 
Bm                         G 
Come down, come talk to me 
     A 
In the swirling curling storm of desire 

Unuttered words hold fast 

With reptile tongue the lightning lashes 

Towers built to last 

Darkness creeps in like a thief 

And offers no relief 

Why are you shaking like a leaf? 

Come on, come talk to me 
 
Chorus: 
------- 
Ah please talk to me 
   A/Db           D 
Won't you please talk to me 
          A/Db           D 
We can unlock this misery 
         A/Db          D 
Come on, come talk to me 
     E                Gbm     
I did not come to steal 
  A/Db            D 
This all is so unreal 
     A/Db        D 
Can't you show me how you feel 
          A/Db            D 
Come on, come talk to me 
     E                Gbm 
Come talk to me, come talk to me 
             D                A 
{verse} 

The earthly power sucks shadowed milk, 

From sleepy tears undone 

From nippled skin as smooth as silk, 

The bugles blow as one 

You lie there with your eyes half closed, 

Like there's no-one there at all 

There's a tension pulling on your face 

Come on, come talk to me 
 
{Chorus} 

Won't you please talk to me 

If you'd just talk to me 

Unblock this misery 

If you'd only talk to me 

Don't you ever change your mind 

Now your future's so defined 

And you act so deaf so blind 

Come on, come talk to me 

Come talk to me, come talk to me 
 
Bridge: 
------- 
  I can imagine the moment 
A 
  Breaking out through the silence 
D/A 
  All the things that we both might say 
A 
  And the heart it will not be denied 
A                                D/A 
'Til we're both on the same damn side 
                                A 
All the barriers blown away 
 
{Chorus} 
I said please talk to me 
Won't you please come talk to me 
Just like it used to be 
Come on, come talk to me 
I did not come to steal 
This all is so unreal 
Can you show me how you feel now 
Come on, come talk to me 
Come talk to me, come talk to me 
 
I said please talk to me 
If you'd just talk to me 
Unblock this misery 
If you'd only talk to me 
Don't you ever change your mind 
Now your future's so defined 
And you act so deaf so blind 
Come on, come talk to me 
Come talk to me, come talk to me
