[G]the air
That's where I met a girl
called [A]Josephine[D]
They call [Bm]her Josephine the [G]Fair[D]
She had Manch Vegas
written [A]across her back
[Em]She just cut o[A]ff all her hair[D][G]
We shared a blanket by the tracks in
[A]Lebanon New [D]Hampshire
I have [Bm]a scent a bed[D]

But I never felt so awake [A]in my life
'Til I no[Em]ticed my jacket was [A]gone
and so was [D]Josephine

[Verse 3]
Soon after she musta had a
[A]change [Em]of heart
But as the [A]train was catching [D]up speed
Like seeing the moon
in the middle of the day
[A]I felt like my feet were just
gonna float away
[Em]When I heard her [A]yelling
[D]"Chicoree"
[G]She was takin' off [A]her jacket as she [D]ran
I said for[G]get the jacket [A]just
gimme [Bm]your hand
I'm gettin' off at the [G]first stop up [A]in Canada
I [D]can make [A]you [G]happy there
She said it [D]would be a while
I said I'll [A]wait
She said it could be [D]a while
I [G]said I'll wait
Keep [D]the jacket just [A]bring
it to me [D]someday

[Verse 5]
[D]She had caught [Bm]in the crowd
With the rain so loud
That you could[Em]n't hear
your up and down
Heart beat now
Did you [A]come back to New
Hampshire [D]to stay?
Did they catch [Bm]you at the border
And send you to back down?
Should [Em]I give up and stop lookin' around
But I'm still [A]waitin' for this day
