<< Back to Gillian Welch Song List

Version 1

            ANNABELLE (Gillian Welch)
Track 2 from "REVIVAL" (Almo, AMSD-80006)

[Verse 1]
Am                        F
We lease twenty acres and one Ginny mule
E7               Am
From the Alabama trust
Am                           F
For half of the cotton and a third of the corn
E7                  Am
We get a handful of dust

[Chorus]
    F                        C             G             Am
We cannot have all things to please us, no matter how we try
            F           C              G           Am  F  G  Am
Until we've all gone to Jesus, we can only wonder why

[Verse 2]
Am               F
I had a daughter called her Annabelle 
E7                    Am
She's the apple of my eye
Am                          F
Tried to give her something like I never had
E7                           Am
Didn't want to ever hear her cry

[Chorus]
    F                        C             G             Am
We cannot have all things to please us, no matter how we try
            F           C              G           Am  
Until we've all gone to Jesus, we can only wonder why

[Solo]
F     C    G    Am
F     C    G    Am  F  G  Am

[Verse 3]
Am                                   F
When I'm dead and buried I'll take a hard life of tears
E7                       Am
From every day I've ever known
Am                               F
Anna's in the churchyard she got no life at all
E7                            Am
She only got these words on a stone

[Chorus]
    F                        C             G             Am
We cannot have all things to please us, no matter how we try
            F           C              G           Am  
Until we've all gone to Jesus, we can only wonder why

[Outro]
F     C    G    Am
F     C    G    Am  F  G  Am
