I think the chords are wrong on the tab. This is what I came up with.

JESSE - Janis Ian
VERSE 1:
/
Jesse come home, there s a hole in the bed where we
slept; now it s growing cold.
Jesse your face in the place where we lay by the
hearth all apart it hangs on my heart
and I m leaving the light on the stairs
No I m not scared; I wait for you, hey
Jessie it s lonely come home
VERSE 2:
/
Jesse the stairs in the halls, recalling
Your step; and I remember too.
All the pictures are shaded and fading in grey
And I still set a place on the table at noon
and I m leaving the light on the stairs
No I m not scared; I wait for you, hey
Jessie it s lonely come home
VERSE 3:
/
Jesse the spread on the bed,
It s like when you left, I kept it for you.
All the blues and the greens have been recently cleaned
And are seemingly new; hey Jess, me and you.
We ll swallow the light on the stairs
I ll fix up my hair, we ll sleep unawares
(strum) (strum)
Hey Jesse, it s lonely, come home
