[Verse]

         G         B         C"Annie Laurie", I wish he'd quit it
           G       D      GCouldn't sleep now if I tried
            G         B         CMakes the night feel big and lonesome
         G           D     GAnd my throat feels sore inside
         G    D        GHow my Annie used to sing it
         Em     Am       BAnd it sounded good and gay
           C                   G      EmNights I drove her home from dances
          G         D      GWhen the east was turnin' gray

[Verse]

           G         B           GYes, her brow t'was like the snowdrift
         G          D      GAnd her eyes like quiet streams
          G       B        CAnd her face, I still can see it
            G      D      DMuch too frequent in my dreams
         G         D         GAnd her hand was soft and trembling
       Em        Am         BThat night underneath the tree
          C               G        EmWhen I couldn't help but tell her
          G        D      GShe was "all the world to me"

[Verse]

          G        B        CBut her folks says I was shif'less
         G    D          GWild, unsettled, they's right
        G    G                  CFor I leaned to punchin' cattle
          G       D     GLord, I'm at it still tonight
          G       D        GAnd she married young Doc Wilkins
    Em        Am       BMy Lord, but that was hard
           C                     G      EmWish that fool would quit his singin'
         G      D       G"Annie Laurie" out on guard
