[Intro] A D Bm D E [Verse 1]
A                          D                            Bm
  I remember a girl on her cellphone, surrounded by her friends

                                 D              E         A
Eyes flickering, she's trying to smother a smile in her hands

                    D                    Bm
Is it someone for us, someone more worry free

                      D                        E          A
Someone who can say, "Leave the worrying about him to me, Josephine"
[Verse 2]
A                             D                                 Bm
  I remember you there in the last rays of light at diplomacy's end

                                     D                   E
Eyes flickering, you're crying, "But isn't this when the crimes begin?"

F#m                             D
    When the people you want to don't

                   Bm                D                      A
And the people who do, you don't believe, do you, Josephine?
[Bridge]
   C            A
Ba-baa na-na-na naa na

         C            G A
Na-na-na naa na-na-na naa

   C            A
Na-naa na-na-na naa na

         C            G A
Na-na-na naa na-na-na naa
[verse 3]
A                             D                                  Bm
  I remember you there at the table, surrounded by all the day's plans

                                  D                E
Eyes flickering, you're trying to let a coffee cup warm your hands

F#m                      D              Bm
    Maybe we're born lost, born to persevere

                               D                E
But, honey, I'd walk into your painting until I reappeared

F#m
    As a speck of comet tail dust

D
  A blue green northern light

Bm
Flickering just

                  D
In your eyes' deepest ravines

               E      A
Goodnight, goodnight, Josephine
