I've been chasin' after Josie since the day I could run

F C

Even tho' I didn't know it at the time

Well I followed her from Texas 'till she found me undone

Just a jump ahead of what I'd left behind

She was as proud of her young body as a body could be

On her way to be a woman of the world

And I still can see her smile as she gave it to me

Lookin' like a lonesome little girl

F C

Cho.. Josie, is it true that you've grown harder than your years

G F C

Selling them your saddness in the street

F C

How much did you lose between the laughter & the tears

G F C

Gettin back the bitter for the sweet

Well she loved me back to livin' at a time I was lost

With the closest thing to love I've ever known

And she led me to some bridges I was burning to cross

Then she went & burned some bridges of her own

Now the roads a little colder every time that I leave

For another empty place I've never been

And I don't suppose it's likely that she's lookin' for me

But someday I'll maybe chase her down again.

Cho..
