Intro 1

N.C.
I know why you're turning green
You see Josephine fly

Intro 2

       

Verse 1

I would think you'd get so tired
Of someone living in your head
You wanna set her house on fire
You wanna be her closest friend
If I knew how to read your mind
I would try
But I'm not sure 
How I can keep you happy
When your happiness depends on her

Chorus

I know why you're turning green
You see Josephine
Fan out her feathers
Whenever she wants
And you can't grow through her shadow
To the sun
You've seen all her videos
She's so pretty
Throws gold from her limousine
Into the streets
And you sweep the gutters clean
And keep the crumbs

Verse 2

I heard your better angels sighing
And soon they all had disappeared
They're probably on the rooftop hiding
And waiting for the smoke to clear
A*
And so the devil has some time
N.C.
Sends a chill down your spine
With a whisper 
And all he ever seems to say
Is all you ever seem to hear

Chorus

I know why you're turning green
You see Josephine
Fan out her feathers
Whenever she wants
And you can't grow through her shadow
To the sun
You've seen all her videos
She's so pretty
Throws gold from her limousine
Into the streets
And you sweep the gutters clean
And keep the crumbs
But you never get enough 
(You never get enough)
You never get enough 
(You never get enough) 

Bridge

We could be thrity thousand feet above her
And you'd still be thinking of her
But I would fall for you
        

Chorus

A*
I know why you're turning green
E*
You see Josephine
D*
Fan out her feathers
E*
Whenever she wants
A* F#m*
And you can't grow through her shadow
To the sun
You've seen all her videos
She's so pretty
Throws gold from her limousine
Into the streets
And you sweep the gutters clean
And keep the crumbs

Outro

It's never enough  
    
I know why you're turning green
You see Josephine flying
