C                       C7 
ease me down josephine 
     F                               C 
got something that makes me want to stay 
F                            C         Am 
you know id never lead you blind or astray 
F                       G7     C 
just ease me down my sweet josephine
 

C                       C7 
take me out in the yard 
    F                      C 
and lay me down half past eight 
    F                           C              Am 
go to the gardens through that bright colored gate 
F                           G7 
just ease your body next to mine 

Chorus 

C                               C7 
its cigarettes and whiskey at dawn 
F                       C       
and apples and oranges at noon 
        F                                   C       Am 
yes its summertime in the city and we'll be leaving soon 
   F                            G7 
im going to carolina to rest my bones
