 A5				     D		    A
Hey fellas have you heard the news, you know that Annie's back in town.
					D	  A
It won't take long until someone can see all the fellas lay their money down.
					D	A
Her style is new but the face's the same as it was so long ago.
				      D        A
But from her eyes a different smile like that of one who knows.

	D  A  D  A  D  A

       A5			       D	  A
Well it's been ten years and maybe more since I first set eyes on you.
				  D	   A
The best years of my life gone by, here I am alone and blue.
				D	A
Some people cry and some people die by the wicked ways of love.
				     D	       A
But I'll just keep on rollin' along with the grace of the Lord above.

	D  A  D  A  D  A

With [Riff 3] x2:

People talkin' all around 'bout the way you left me flat.
I don't care what the people say, I know where their jive is at.

With [Riff 4] x1:

One thing I do have on my mind, if you could clarify please do.

With [Riff 5] x1:

It's the way you call me another guy's name when I try to make love to you.

[Fill 1] x2
