  Annie laid her head down in the roses. She had ribbons, ribbons, ribbons in

  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/G#  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.

  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.
  
  
  Thanks to the original poster.
  
  Peace,
  Paul Z
