[Intro] Riff 1 Riff 1 Riff 2 [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]
                  C       G(2)
I could have been anyone
Am(G0h2) I imagined I could be
               C       G
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]
                  C       G(2)
I could have been anyone
Am(G0h2) I imagined I could be
               C       G(2)
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]
                G        C
So come on now Josephine

                         F
Let's pretend it's Halloween

               G        C
You come as a car crash

                      F
And I'll go as James Dean

                 G
I'm Napoloeon on Elba

              C                F
And you're a hundred days in 1815

                      G                        C
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
[Outro]
             C        G(2)
Come on now Josephine

          Am(G0h2)
Show yourself to me

                C      G(2)
Could have been anyone

                     Am(G0h2)
But I ended up being me

                 C
Could have been wide awake

                 G
Could have been what you need

                   Am
I wish that I was anyone except for just me

                F        G(2)
So come on now Josephine

           Am(G0h2)
Show yourself to me

             F        G(2)
Come on now Josephine

           Am(G0h2)
Show yourself to me

            F        G(2)
Come on now Josephine

           Am(G0h2)
Show yourself to me

            F        G(2)
Come on now Josephine

             Am~
Show yourself to me
