-VERSE-
F6(pm)
I heard the name Josephine
Asus4(pm) G5(pm)
It came to me in a dream
F6(pm) Asus4(pm) G5(pm)
And I don't usually set too much store by the things that these things might mean
F6(pm)
It was spoken with seriousness
Asus4(pm) G5(pm)
More of a whisper than a scream
F6(pm)
Now, I'm waiting on this Josephine
Asus4(pm) G(3) XXX
To show herself to me
-CHORUS-
CG
I could have been anyone
Am(G0h2)
I imagined I could be
CG
I just needed somebody
Am(G0h2)
To show me how to be
C
I could have been Napoleon
G
Could have been Beethoven
Am
Could have been anyone but uncomfortable me
C G(2) Am(G0h2)
So come on now Josephine show yourself to me
-VERSE-
F6(pm) Asus4(pm) G5(pm)
So come on now Josephine give me what I need
F6(pm)
I don't like to be needy but sometimes needs ---
Asus4(pm) G5(pm)
I can't stand being the person that I've been
F6(pm)
I'm an impending car crash
Asus4(pm) G5(pm)
And I'm the first one on the scene
F6(pm)
I'm a defeated commander, I'm a tone-deaf composer
Asus4(pm) G(3) XXX
I'm a strange name whispered in a dream
-CHORUS-
CG
I could have been anyone
Am(G0h2)
I imagined I could be
CG
I just needed somebody
Am(G0h2)
To show me how to be
C
I could have been Napoleon
G
Could have been Beethoven
Am
Could have been anyone but uncomfortable me
C G(2) Am(G0h2)
So come on now Josephine show me how to be
-BRIDGE-
GC
So come on now Josephine
F
Let's pretend it's Halloween
GC
You come as a car crash
F
And I'll go as James Dean
G
I'm Napoloeon on Elba
CF
And you're a hundred days in 1815
GC
I wrote all of these letters to my immortal beloved
F F.
You're the only one who's ever gonna know what they mean

I wish that I was anyone except for just me
