[Verse 1]

D5 C#5

I'm selfish

B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

I always made your problems ’bout me

D5 C#5

I can't help it

B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

I wish I had a little empathy for ya.

But that night that you told me

C#5

That I don't work hard enough

B5 A5

Told me I cracked too much ripped me to pieces

G5 F#5 Em A7

And then called it love.

D5 C#5

Oh and I never handled it quite like I wanted to

B5 A5

What was I supposed to do?

G5 F#5 Em A7

Knowing that both of us had enough.

[Chorus]

But when you think of me

C#5 B5

I hope you think of Joshua Tree

A5 G5 F#5

That summer, where the road went on forever

Em A7

No one in sight for us

When you think of me

C#5 B5 A5

I hope you think of the letters that I sent ya

G5 F#5

From across town, just ’cause I missed ya

Em A7

When the worst was yet to come

D5 C#5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

And you know I do, when I think of you

D5 C#5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

Yeah you know I do, when I think of you.

[Verse 2]

D5 C#5

You're careless

B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

Always saying things you didn't mean

D5 C#5

Took me for granted

B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

Expecting me to find the in-between

D5 D5

But that night that I told you that I wouldn't marry you

B5 A5

Swear I could feel from the floor to the ceiling

G5 F#5 Em A7

Your walls came up.

D5 C#5

So then I pulled you closer, and you pushed me further

And nothing would matter

We kept getting sadder

G5 F#5 Em A7

And called it love.

[Chorus]

But when you think of me

C#5 B5

I hope you think of Joshua Tree

A5 G5 F#5

That summer, where the road went on forever

Em A7

No one in sight for us

When you think of me

C#5 B5 A5

I hope you think of the letters that I sent ya

G5 F#5

From across town, just ’cause I missed ya

Em A7

When the worst was yet to come

D5 C#5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

And you know I do, when I think of you

D5 C#5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

Yeah you know I do, when I think of you.

[Bridge]

D5 C#5 B5 A5

I think of New Year's in San Francisco

G5 F#5

Drunk on my roof looking at you

Em A7

Wrapped up in your coat

D5 C#5

So tell me, my dear

B5 A7

What do you think of?

G5 F#5 Em A7

Don't you remember why we fell in love?

[Chorus]

Oh, and when you think of me

But when you think of me

C#5 B5

I hope you think of Joshua Tree

A5 G5 F#5

That summer, where the road went on forever

Em A7

No one in sight for us

When you think of me

C#5 B5 A5

I hope you think of the letters that I sent ya

G5 F#5

From across town, just ’cause I missed ya

Em A7

When the worst was yet to come

D5 C#5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 Em A7

Cos you know I do, when I think of you, oh baby

D5 C#5 B5 A5 G5 F#5

Yeah you know I do, when I think of you

Em A7 D5 C#5

I think of you, I think of you, baby

B5 A5 G5 F#5
