Verse:
G
Diamonds hold mirrors
F C
And spoon it holds the stars
G
It's been a long time baby
F C
Since I've seen the sun rise like this
G
Make a wish and call it maybe
F C
And give me one more kiss
G
Ooh, I like it like this
F C
Ooh, I like it like this
Chorus:
G
Oh Josephine
C
You’re dressed in black
G
Oh Josephine
C
Your eyes are blue
G
And I know now
C
There's no turning back
G
Oh Josephine
C
What will we do?
It's the dreaming through the come down
Still filling every tape
Come on and touch me baby
Before I turn to rust
I know there ain't no other
It's not a matter of trust
It's just sometimes love ain't enough
Ooh, love ain't enough
Chorus
Bridge:
F C
For a while I was kneeling in tears and powder
F C
For as well I was strung out beyond my means
F C
Well I lost that love while climbing down the ladder
D#m F
Just looking for the song to set me free
Waited for redemption
No leaving love behind
You've got to know where you wanna be
It gets cold outside
It's too late to play it safe
So let's let it all ride
Yeah, let's let it all ride
Let it all ride!
