Verse 1 (use verse tab)
Annan water, you loom so deep and wide
I would cross over if you would stem the tide
Or build a boat that I might ford the other side F
To reach the farther shore where my true love lies in wait for me
GIn wait for Amme, Fin wait for Emme, Gin wait for Amme
Verse 2: (use verse 1 chords)
Oh, great river, your waters ramble wild
The horses shiver and bite against the bridle
But I will cross if mine own horse is pulled from me
Though my mother cries that if I try I sure will drowned be
Will drowned be, will drowned be, will drowned be
Chorus Chords:
But if you cDalm Dm and let me pAass F#m
You may rDender me a wEreck when I come bAack A7
So calm your waDves Dm and slow the cAhurn A7
D E [start verse tabs here]
And you may have my precious bones on my return
Verse 3: (use verse 1 chords)
Annan water, oh hear my true love's call
Hear her holler above your water's pall
God, that I could that my two arms could give me wings
And I would cross your breadth and rest my breast about her amber ring
Her amber ring, her amber ring
Chorus Chords:
But if you cDalm Dm and let me pAass F#m
You may rDender me a wEreck when I come bAack A7
So calm your waDves Dm and slow the cAhurn A7
D E [start verse tabs here]
And you may have my precious bones on my return
On my, on my rDmeturn
