Josephine

N.C. 

I know why you're turning green 
                  A 
You see Josephine fly 

Intro 
E  D  D E  A  F#m  E 

 
                    A 
I would think you'd get so tired 
   F#m                    C#m 
Of someone living in your head 
                  A 
You wanna set her house on fire 
    F#m                  E 
You wanna be her closest friend 
                 A 
If I knew how to read your mind 
        F#m 
I would try 
            Bm  E 
But I'm not sure 
          A 
How I can keep you happy 
          F#m                  E 
When your happiness depends on her 
 

 
  A 
I know why you're turning green 
E 
You see Josephine 
D 
Fan out her feathers 
D 
Whenever she wants 
        A                      F#m 
And you can't grow through her shadow 
       E 
To the sun 
       A 
You've seen all her videos 
E 
She's so pretty 
       D 
Throws gold from her limousine 
D 
Into the streets 
        A                 F#m 
And you sweep the gutters clean 
             E 
And keep the crumbs 
 

 
                    A 
I heard your better angels sighing 
     F#m              C#m 
And soon they all had disappeared 
                        A 
They're probably on the rooftop hiding 
    F#m                      E 
And waiting for the smoke to clear 
           A 
And so the devil has some time 
        N.C. 
Sends a chill down your spine 
       Bm     E 
With a whisper 
                A 
And all he ever seems to say 
   F#m                  E 
Is all you ever seem to hear

And you sweep the gutters clean 
             E 
And keep the crumbs 
              D         E 
But you never get enough 
           F#m       C#m 
(You never get enough) 
          D         E 
You never get enough 
           F#m       A E 
(You never get enough) 
 

 
D                   E              A 
 We could be thrity thousand feet above her 
                           F#m 
And you'd still be thinking of her 
    A       F#m      E 
But I would fall for you 
A  E  A  D  A  E  D  E
