Josaphine

      E                 B
Think I'll up and move to Canada
      F#m       B        E
Think I'll begin my story there
      E                 B
And if the prime minister says hes had enough
       F#m       B         E
I'll go back to St. Johnsberry to breathe the air
(Switch to barre chords now on 5th and 7th fret)
  A                  B
That's where I met a girl called Josaphine
E          C#m    B        A
They call her Josaphine the Fair
(Back to open chords)
E                        B
She had Manch Vegas written across her back
F#m          B             E
She just cut off all her hair
(Back to barre chords)
A                                    B
We shared a blanket by the tracks in Lebanon, New Hampshire
E       C#m      B         A
I never slept a better dream
(Back to open chords)
E                       B
But I never felt more awake in my life
         F#m           B                          E
'til I noticed my jacket was gone and so was Josaphine

A           B             E
Josaphine Josaphine Josaphine
A              B                C#m

E                              B
soon after she musta had a change of heart
F#m            B                  E
but as the train was catching up speed
E
like seeing the moon in the middle of the day
B
I felt like my feet were just gonna float away
F#m               B             E
when I heard her yelling "Chicoree"
(switch to barre chords)
         A                B          E
she was takin' off the jacket as she ran
          A               B            C#m
I said forget the jacket just gimme your hand
        A                                       B
I'm gettin' off at the first stop up there in Canada
E          C#m        A
I can make you happy there
(Back to open chords)
E
she said it would be a while
B
I said I'll wait
E
she said it could be a while
A
I said I'll wait
E                       B                E
keep the jacket, just bring it to me someday

A           B             E
Josaphine Josaphine Josaphine
A              B                C#m

(Play open chords here minus C#m and B and F#m)
C#m
did you get caught in the crowd
with the rain so loud
           F#m
that you couldn't hear your up and down
heart beat now
B                                     E
did you go back to New Hampshire to stay?
C#m
did they catch you at the border
and send you to back down?
           F#m
should I give up and stop lookin' around
               B
but I'm still waitin' to this day
E                   F#m         B
