Staring At Your Window

With A Suitcase In My Hand

Words & Music by Jon Bon Jovi

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The intro is played in a open D and a Gmaj7 (see Chords at bottom).

* For the more experienced player

If you listen to the CD you'll notice the high note in the background, it's a Fm

and a A played on the 1st string (fret 3 and 5) Jon recorded this as a solo and

put it in the background. When you're playing alone you can overcome this by putting

the 2 together. Just play the open D or Gmaj7 and Add the A note (See Chords at bottom).

The first 2 bars are just the notes, play on 1st string Fm and A (fret 2 en 5)

Enjoy, Maurice Blaak

Intro D - Gmaj7

D

You think you know me, just because you know my name

G D

You think you see me, 'Cause you've seen every line on my face

G

You want to want me Just because I say that I want you

Bm

But does it matter, if anything I'm saying is the truth.

G Em

You need somebody, somebody to hold on to

A

But this ain't the movies and we ain't heroes.

D

Staring at you window whit a suitcase in my hand

Gmaj7

The night street lights buzz as the cars roll by and the night don't give a damn

Em

My boots just keep on walkin' but my heart don't understand

A G

Why I'm starring at your window with a suitcase in my hand

D

I said I want you.

G

But when we woke up, one of us was crying.

D

You rolled over, and all you said was "Man I think I'm dying"

Our song is over, this band of gold has been feeling lake a noose

G

You place your bets, 'cause no one thinks they'll loose

D

Staring at you window whit a suitcase in my hand

Gmaj7

The night street lights buzz as the cars roll by and the moon don't give a damn

Em

My boots just keep on walkin' but my heart don't understand

A G

Why I'm starring at your window

Bm

The Light of love can blind you till you cover up your eyes

G

And you try to find the reason not to say goodbye

Em

It's the curse of every sailor standing on dry land

A G

Staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand

Solo 4 bars

Bm G

The night is fading like my old tattoo

Bm F#m G A

A heart and a dagger that says forever

D

Staring at you window whit a suitcase in my hand

Gmaj7

The night street lights buzz as the cars roll by and the night don't give a damn

Em

I'm getting tyred of talking and I don't understand

A G

Why I'm starring at your window with a suitcase in my hand

Fade out with solo (sha la la la la)
