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
