Josephine- Brandi Carlile
This is a nice bit of fingerpicking by Tim Hanseroth
Capo 4
c#m B E
Take me back Josephine (on the first time through this part is sung a capella)
A B
To that cold and dark December
c#m B E A B
I am missing someone but I don’t know who
c#m B E
Now I’m standing alone
A B
And I’m trying to remember
c#m B E A
Sometimes I wonder how I ever
B E
Started loving you
A E B
Noontime wind can you blow
c#m A
For me one more time and take me
E B
On back to the start
A E
Where the midnight moon
B
Shines so bright
c#m A
Nearly pulled us up to heaven
E B
By the strings of our hearts

Chorus
A E B
Morning sun shine on me
c#m A
Come light inside my window
E B
And rest on my brow
A E B
Kiss my eyes when I sleep
c#m A
And carry me back home
E B
If my dreams will allow
Chorus
c#m B E
Take me back Josephine
A B
To that cold and dark December
c#m B E A B
I am missing someone but I don’t know who
c#m B E
Now I’m standing alone
A B
And I’m trying to remember
c#m B E A
Sometimes I wonder how I ever
B E
Started loving you
This time entering the chorus, time plays the 4th fret on the 2nd string as an intro to
final repeat of the chorus.
Repeat chorus, then
“someone help me understand why I’m still loving you”
