(ver. 2)
Kris Kristofferson
[Verse 1]
C                                        F           C
I've been chasin' after Josie since the day I could run
      F                            C
Even tho' I didn't know it at the time
C                                        F           C
Well I followed her from Texas 'till she found me undone
        F                            C
Just a jump ahead of what I'd left behind


[Verse 2]
C                                        F         C
She was as proud of her young body as a body could be
        F                          C
On her way to be a woman of the world
C                                       F         C
And I still can see her smilin’ as she gave it to me
    F                            C
Lookin' like a lonesome little girl


[Chorus]
F                                    
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 F C
Gettin back the bitter for the sweet


[Verse 3]
C                                      F           C
Well she loved me back to livin' at a time I was lost
             F                            C
With the closest thing to love I've ever known
C                                      F           C
And she led me to some bridges I was burning to cross
          F                                   C
Then she went & burned some bridges of her own


[Verse 4]
C                                    F           C
Now the roads a little colder every time that I leave
      F                            C
For another empty place I've never been
C                                          F           C
And I don't suppose it's likely that she's lookin' for me
      F                                 C
But someday I'll maybe chase her down again.


[Chorus]
F                                    C
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 F C
Gettin back the bitter for the sweet
