A E A D A
A Annie laid her head down in the roses. She had ribbons, ribbons, ribbons in D E A F#m her long, brown hair. I don't know. Maybe it was the roses. A E A All I know, I could not leave her there. D E A D E I don't know. It must have been the roses; the roses or the ribbons in A G D E A E F#m her long, brown hair. I don't know. Maybe it was the roses. A E A All I know, I could not leave her there. A G A7 D A Ten years the waves rolled the ships home from the sea.
One pane of glass in the window.
G A7 D I'm thinking well, how it may blow in all good company.
No one is complaining, though. Come in and shut the door.
A E D If I tell another what your own lips told to me,
Faded is the crimson from the ribbons that she wore,
A E D let me lay 'neath the roses and my eyes no longer see.
and it's strange how no one comes 'round anymore.
