Intro:

E7 A7

Verse:
E7                                  A7
Wake up one more morning in the sun
E7                                A7
Fading dreams of lovers on the run
C                             A7
Turtle necks, and shells and sheets all filled with sand
C                            A7
Will not wash away all that dry blood on your hand

Chorus:
C                               A7
Take a load off, Annie, baby, listen to the band
C            Cmaj7     E7
Stay yearnin' for me

E7 A7

Verse:
E7                          A7
Ask some foggy mirror of a man
E7                            A7
If he has some new exciting plan

Chorus:
C                                     A
You won't find your soul in words of smooth, sweet talkin' men
C                                    A
You can't wash your hands in someone's innocence again
C                                   A
Oh the trees are bloomin' for you, just around the bend
A7                E7
Lay a burden on me

Verse:
E7                                  A7
Wake up one more morning in the sun
E7                                A7
Fading dreams of lovers on the run
C                                 A7
Turtle necks, and shells and sheets all filled with sand
C                               A7
Will not wash away all that dry blood on your hand

Ending/Chorus:
C                                              A7
Take a load off, Annie, baby, listen to the band
C            Cmaj7
Stay yearnin' for me
