Cowboy      Josephine Beyond Compare      written by Tommy Talton

E                         F#     A                    E
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain't fair
                             F#        A                  E
The only dream that's really there she sits with shinning hair
   A                 E
I found her waiting there
G                F#m              Bm
I thought we all knew her like we all know rain and pain
   G               F#m              Bm
I then hear voices talking of their right to being vain
         G                            F#m
She said they don't know what they're saying
         Bm                            E
For they speak without  no thought and if they're words had been

confined
      G                                   B  Bsus B
These men could not be taught   she's so true
     E                    F#     A                    E
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain't fair
E                             F#       A                  E
The only dream that's really there she sits with shinning hair
   A                 E
I found her waiting there
   G                 F#m              Bm
To speak in terms of true & false she can't be understood
    G            F#m             Bm
And yet I find myself describing her in terms of good
   G              F#m             Bm
I stood to sing a song to her and then she made me see
      E                              G
There is no song to sing to her that is not sung to me
                     B Bsus B
It's her you long to be
E                      F#        A                    E
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain't fair
                              F#       A                  E
The only dream that's really there she sits with shinning hair
   A                E
I found her waiting there
 G           F#m              Bm
Josephine is crying and she's laughing while she does
G               F#m              Bm
No one needs to tell her who she is or who she was
G                  F#m             Bm
She's been thru it all and you can see it in her eyes
    E                             G
And no one can tell Josephine that she don't realize
             B  Bsus B
You know she does
E                     F#         A                    E
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain't fair
                              F#       A                  E
The only dream that's really there she sits with shinning hair
   A                 E
I found her waiting there
