Verse 1:
F Bbsus2b5 Bb2
When all my dreams are fallin' on stony ground
F Bbsus2b5 Bb2
and I start wonderin' why I'm even around,
Gm Gm7 C2
can't find the sunshine anywhere,
Gm Gm7 C9 C2
Jessie puts her arms around me and runs her fingers through my hair.
Chorus:
F Am7 Bb2 F
And Jessie sings soft as the Georgia rain
Bb Am7 Gm7 F
coming down easy on a window pane.
F Am7 Bb2 C2 Dm7
And Jessie sings warm as a late night summer breeze
Bb Am7 Gm7 F
hummin' some faraway tune to the willow trees.
Gm7 C9 C2
And life is everything God meant it to be
Gm7 C9 F
when Jessie's singing soft as the Georgia rain to me.
F Eb Bb2 F

Verse 2:

And everything's all right 'cause Jessie's singing me to sleep tonight.

Jessie's singing me to sleep tonight.
