Josephine Chords

Josephine- Brandi Carlile

This is a nice bit of fingerpicking by Tim Hanseroth

Capo 1

          Em    D      G
Take me back Josephine  (on the first time through this part is sung a capella)
        C               D
To that cold and dark December
        Em    D       G     C          D
I am missing someone but I don’t know who
        Em   D    G
Now I’m standing alone
        C            D
And I’m trying to remember
    Em       D     G     C
Sometimes I wonder how I ever
   D             G
Started loving you


 C       G             D
Noontime wind can you blow
        Em               C
For me one more time and take me
    G          D
On back to the start
          C        G
Where the midnight moon
             D
Shines so bright
        Em            C
Nearly pulled us up to heaven
       G               D
By the strings of our hearts


Chorus


C       G             D
Morning sun shine on me
      Em               C
Come light inside my window
    G          D
And rest on my brow
C       G             D
Kiss my eyes when I sleep
     Em               C
And carry me back home
    G          D
If my dreams will allow

Chorus

        Em    D      G
Take me back Josephine  
        C               D
To that cold and dark December
        Em    D       G     C          D
I am missing someone but I don’t know who
        Em   D    G
Now I’m standing alone
        C            D
And I’m trying to remember
    Em       D     G     C
Sometimes I wonder how I ever
   D             G
Started loving you



Repeat chorus, then
         Em      D     G     C   D         G
“someone help me understand why I’m still loving you”
