Josephine, Acadian Queen

 

TEMPO 90

INTRO: C G C

C                                G           F                                   C
We came from all points, north, south, east and west
            F                          C                      Dm                      G
We gathered up our memories to share with all the rest
     Am                            C             Em                   F
Together we joined hearts to honour your name
             C                                G                 C
Oh Josephine, you’re the reason we came

 

CHORUS

           F                  G        C
Oh Josephine you left a rich legacy
F                     C
I am who I am

                       Dm                      G

Because of who you were to me

                        C
You gave us roots and gave us wings
                 F
And all your love in between
          C            G                  C
Oh Josephine, Acadian Queen

 

La, la, la

A family is as strong as the ties that bind
A legacy lives on through the ones left behind
I can only hope to do half as much as you
For my children, too

CHORUS
