Lyrics are from http://genius.com/Chris-cornell-josephine-lyrics, and I'm pretty sure most of them are correct (apart from the human mind part which I corrected). However, if you find a mistake in the booklet, let me know. [Verse]
G                   D
Josephine where can you be now?

Am               C         F           G
Again the sun is rising on my troubled heart

G                  D
Don’t deny you know you and I

      Am         C
Are the making of what fate

    F           G       Em
Just can’t pull apart
[Chorus]
Em G6   C       G
My sweet Josephine

Em        G6       C      D
Won’t you come and marry me?

      Em            G6        C             F
I got every kind of love that you will ever need

Am   Cmaj7/B  F      C       G
Dying here on bended knees
[Verse]
G
Sheets of rain

D
Cold and gray

Am       C
Run down the page

     F            G
As I write your name

G                           D
With just the weight of your silence now

Am           C                 F                G      Em
Crashing all around me while I screamed it out loud
[Chorus]
Em G6   C       G
My sweet Josephine

Em        G6       C      D
Won’t you come and marry me?

      Em            G6        C             F
I got every kind of love that you will ever need

Am   Cmaj7/B  F      C       
Dying here on bended knees
[Bridge]
Bm                 Em
Like a raven in a cage

F        C
Blood of my birth

Em              G6
Just won’t wash away

Bm                       Em
Like a stitched together doll

D
My feet to the flame

     D#dim
As I fall on the blame

    Em      Em7    C
For someone else’s pain

Am7                D
For someone else’s pain

G         D
Rivers of black ink flood

Am            C               F         G
A tapestry of flesh and blood around my frame

G               D
A living shrine just for you if you'll be mine

Am          C
Golden band upon your hand

F                  G            Em
Leave this endless winter behind
[Chorus]
Em G6   C       G
My sweet Josephine

Em        G6       C      D
Won’t you come and marry me?

      Em            G6        C             F
I got every kind of love that you will ever need

Am   Cmaj7/B  F      C       
Dying here on bended knees

Am   Cmaj7/B  F      C       
Dying here on bended knees

Am   Cmaj7/B  F      C       
Dying here on bended knees

  G
My Josephine
