Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:
G  Dm  Am  X2
Verse:
G                        Dm
They found her body in the water
Am
Floating face down in the river
G                    Dm
The one who found her called the doctor
Am
Or so they say

G                       Dm
Not a scratch, she wasn't bleeding
Am
Sixteen years old, died a virgin
G                       Dm
Unlucky lover, she did herself in
Am                     C
Or so they say
        F              C
Rescue Annie from the river
       F               Am
With every kiss she is delivered
        F              C
From the depths and we forgive her
           Em
For falling in

G                                  Dm
They say the doctor could have saved her
Am
If he'd come a little sooner
G                                 Dm
It broke his heart to know he'd lost her
Am
To the world
G                                Dm
And though he couldn't rescue Annie
Am
He resolved to tell her story
G                              Dm
He used her face to make a body
Am                            C
To teach the world

        F               C
Rescue Annie from the river
        F                Am
With every kiss she is delivered
        F                  C
From the depths and we forgive her

         Em
For falling in

C Gm Dm x2
Am
             C                    F            E              C
In darkened storage rooms of hospitals across the world she waits
                 Em            Am            F
For the missing kiss that damned her to her fate

G  Am  G    Am
G                           Dm
Annie sinks down to the bottom
Am
The one who spurned her is forgotten
G                                 Dm          Am
While she is cherished by a million pairs of lips

C
         F             C
Rescue Annie from the river
         F                     C
Help her breathe, try to forgive her
       F                    C
Press her chest, always remember
    F                          Am
That in her heart we find our harbor
F                          Am
And every year, come early summer
F                              C
He lingers down there by the river
    F                  C
Rescue Annie from the river
F                              Am
In life, her lonely lips were never
F                             C
Loved, in death, caressed forever
Em
We all fell in
