The leading Bmlights of the age all wondered amongst ThemsEm6elves what I would do next After F#7all that I'd found in my travels around The Bmworld, was there anything left? B"Gentlemen", I said, "I've studied the maps" "And if Emwhat I'm thinking is right" "There's A7another new world at the top of the world" "For the Dwhoever can break through the F#ice"
[Verse]
I looked round the Bmroom in that way I once had And I Em6saw that they wanted belief So I F#7said "All I've got are my guts and my God" Then I Bmpaused, "and the Annabelle Lee" Oh the BAnnabelle Lee, I saw their eyes shine The most Embeautiful ship in the sea My A7Nina, My Pinta, My Santa Maria My Dbeautiful Annabelle F#Lee
Bm Em6 F#7 Bm [Verse]
That Bmspring I set sail as the crowd waved from shore And on Em6board the crew waved their hats But I F#7never had family just the Annabelle Lee So I Bmnever had cause to look back I just Bset the course north and I studied the charts And toward Emdawn I drifted toward sleep And I A7dreamed of the fine deep harbor I'd find Past the Dice for my Annabelle F#Lee
[Verse]
After that it got Bmcolder the world got quiet It was Em6never quite day or quite night And the F#7sea turned the color of sky turned the color Of Bmsea turned the color of ice 'Til at Blast all around us was fastness One vast glassy Emdesert of arsenic white And the A7waves that once lifted us Sifted instead into Ddrifts against Annabelle's F#sides
[Verse]
The crew gathered Bmcloser at first for the comfort But each Em6morning would bring a new set Of the F#7tracks in the snow leading over the edge Of the Bmworld 'til I was the only one left But then it gBets cloudy and it seems like I lay there For Emdays maybe for months But A7Annabelle held me the two of us happy Just to Dthink back on all we had F#done
Bm Em6 F#7 Bm B Em A7 D F# [Verse]
We Bmtalked of the other new worlds we'd discover As she Em6gave up her body to me And as I F#7chopped up her mainsail for timber I told her of Bmall that we still had to see As the Bfrost turned her moorings to nine-tails And the Emwind lashed her sides in the cold I A7burned her to keep me alive every night In the Dloving embrace of her F#hold
[Verse]
I won't call it Bmrescue what brought me back here to The Em6old world to drink and decline And to F#7pretend that the search for another new world Was wellBm-worth the burning of mine But Bsometimes at night in my dreams comes the singing Of Emsome unheard tropical bird And I A7smile in my sleep thinking Annabelle Lee's Finally Dmade it to another new F#7world
[Outro]
Yes Bsometimes at night, in my dreams comes the singing Of Emsome unknown tropical bird And I A7smile in my sleep thinking Annabel Lee's Finally Dmade it to another new F#world
