ANNABELLE (Gillian Welch)
Track 2 from "REVIVAL" (Almo, AMSD-80006)
CAPO 5
VERSE 1:
Em C
We lease twenty acres and one Ginny mule
B7 Em
>From the Alabama trust
Em C
For half of the cotton and a third of the corn
B7 Em
We get a handful of dust
CHORUS:
C G D Em
We cannot have all things to please us, no matter how we try
C G D Em C D Em
Until we've all gone to Jesus, we can only wonder why
VERSE 2:
I had a daughter called her Annabelle
She's the apple of my eye
Tried to give her something like I never had
Didn't want to ever hear her cry
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3:
When I'm dead and buried I'll take a hard life of tears
>From every day I've ever known
Anna's in the churchyard she got no life at all
She only got these words on a stone
(CHORUS)
