[Intro]
 G

[Verse 1]
G               Am7
 Late at night, somewhat tight,
D7              G              G G/F#
 Guardian angels put to flight.
Em                    Am
 Freddie's doused the neon light
D7                      G
 That promised while it shone.

[Verse 2]
G            Am7
 Time to go, time to blow,
D7                  G               G G/F#
 They don't push me 'cause they know.
Em               Am
 I'm still in my long ago,
D7                  G
 When Annie took me home.

[Refrain]
Em            Bm
  There was I,  wondering why,
Em                  D
  Annie'd choose to ask me over.
Em            Bm
  But she did,  sure she did,
A                 D            D/C   D/B   D/A
 She called me her Irish rover.

[Verse 3]
G            Am7
 Sat me there in her chair,
D7               G               G G/F#
 Ran her fingers through my hair.
Em               Am
 Talk of heaven, I've been there
     D7            G
When Annie took me home.

[Instrumental]
G            Am7
D7        G   G G/F#
Em        Am
D       G

[Verse 4]
G             Am7
 Rafters rung, songs were sung, like
D7               G             G G/F#
 "Spanish Is the Loving Tongue".
Em              Am
  Ribbons on my life were hung,
     D7            G
When Annie took me home.

[Refrain]
Em               Bm
  There was wine,  there was time.
Em             D
 All the while guitars were playing.
Em            Bm
  Then the day  came my way,
 A                 D               D/C   D/B   D/A
  When she told me I'd be staying.

[Verse 5]
G              Am7
 Love can grow, love can go,
D7                G
 Did she love me? I don't know.
Em                Am
 Though she often told me so,
     D7           G
I've never really known.

[Verse 6]
G            Am7
 Was I blind? I don't mind.
D7                    G             G G/F#
  I think life's been more than kind.
Em                   Am
Thanks to life, there was the time
    D7             G
When Annie took me home.

[Outro]
G G/F#  Em                    Am
        Thanks to life, there was the time
    D7             G
When Annie took me home.
