Thats where I met a girl called Josephine

E B
soon after she musta had a change of heart
F# B E
but as the train was catching up speed
E
like seeing the moon in the middle of the day
B
i felt like my feet were just gonna float away
F# B E
when i heard her yelling "Chicoree"
(switch to barre chords)
A B E
she was takin off the jacket as she ran
A B C#m
i said forget the jacket just gimme your hand
A B
im gettin off at the first stop up there in canada
E C#m A
i can make you happy there
(Back to Open Chords)
E
she said it would be a while
B
i said i'll wait
E
she said it could be a while
A
i said i'll wait
E B E
keep the jacket just bring it to me someday
Chorus Repeat
(play open chords here minus C#m and B and F#)
C#m
did you get caught in a cloud
with the rain so loud
F#
that you couldn't hear your up and down
heart speak out
B E
did you go back to New Hampshire to stay?
C#m
did they catch you at the border
and send you to back down?
F#
should I give up and stop lookin around
B
but im still waitin to this day
E F# B
