          JOSEPHINE
         DAMIEN JURADO


INTRO:
 F

VERSE:
 F         Bb        F
Josephine, I have seen you on the sidewalk
     Bb         F         C
Throwing troubles just like flowers to passers by
 F               Bb      F
Don't weigh us down, though we have too many anchors
     Bb       F       C
And like you we want to sail into the sea


CHORUS:
Bb     F    C
 I never had the chance to grow up
   Bb    F      C
Into what they wanted me to be
Bb    F    C
 Every rainbow has an end
     Bb    F     C
And it's where the colors are leaving

Bb F C  Bb F C


VERSE:
 F          Bb       F
Josephine, keep your sunlight in our windows
    Bb       F       C
We are rusted like the silos full of grain
 F        Bb          F
Josephine, is it true that all state children
     Bb       F       C
Who will one day be forgotten by our names



CHORUS:
Bb     F    C
 I never had the chance to grow up
   Bb    F      C
Into what they wanted me to be
Bb    F    C
 Every rainbow has an end
     Bb    F   C
And it's where the colors leaving

Bb F C  Bb F C


VERSE:
 F         Bb      F
Josephine, I was written in the skyline
      Bb        F     C
You must leave before your time oh oh oh
 F            Bb         F
Don't let us die for we need your hands to cling to
  Bb       F        C
A doorway we can walk through to heaven


CHORUS:
Bb     F    C
 I never had the chance to grow up
   Bb    F      C
Into what they wanted me to be
Bb    F    C
 Every rainbow has an end
     Bb    F   C
And it's where the colors leaving

Bb F C  Bb F C
