Annies House chords by David Francey

David Francey - Annie's House


CAPO: 2nd Fret




INTRO: C

CHORUS:
       F               C
I went down to Annie's house
F                            C
Down the road and across the river
      G                  F       C
And I stood there in the warm sunshine
      G                             C
And I wished that day would last forever

      F                     C
And I look upon her face so fair
      F                       C
And I cannot see what shadows lie
  G                   F          C
Behind the smile that lights her face
  G                      C
Behind the kind and open eyes


CHORUS:
    F                      C
And I went down to Annie's house
F                            C
Down the road and across the river
      G                  F       C
And I stood there in the warm sunshine
      G                             C
And I wished that day would last forever


INTERLUDE: C  F  C  G  (2x) C


             F                   C
And in these green New Hampshire hills
    F                            C
The town lies nestled, clapboard white
G                F       C
Sits in silence, picture-still
G                       C
Sleeping in the warm sunlight


    F                       C
And I walked down the empty street
      F                     C
Can't see behind the window glass
      G                 F    C
Can't see the town that lies beneath
  G                         C
Between the present and the past


CHORUS:
    F                      C
And I went down to Annie's house
F                            C
Down the road and across the river
      G                  F       C
And I stood there in the warm sunshine
      G                             C
And I wished that day would last forever


INSTRUMENTAL: C  F  C  G  (4x) C


  F                    C
I stood upon a rounded rock
      F                      C
And I stood upon the flowing water
    G              F        C
And I was safe and warm within
    G                         C
The kindness of the postman's daughter


CHORUS:
    F                      C
And I went down to Annie's house
F                            C
Down the road and across the river
      G                F       C
And I sat there in the warm sunshine
      G                            C
And I wished the day would last forever
