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.

I don't know.  It must have been the roses; the roses or the ribbons in

    A     G     D           E                A     E/G#  F#m
her long, brown hair. I don't know.  Maybe it was the roses.

Ten years the waves rolled the ships home from the sea.
One pane of glass in the window.

              G/B    A7/C#   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.
