Subject: Townshen-Lane "Annie" chords
ANNIE
words and music by Lane-Lambert-Clapton
From the townshend/lane album ?Rough Mix?
I?m pretty confident about most of this. Its the first time I have ever
transcribed by ear an entire song, but i am only 35. I have already written
one new song since learning this rather subtle but pretty chord grouping.
Sorry about the way some of the chord changes don't line up correctly. I
pasted this in from my wordprocessor and it looks a bit funny. If you
listen to the track on the album, you'll get it.
Intro: ASection format
D A Bm A F#m A D A G D
In the B Section I brush over the A chord on the way back to Bm
(a quick skippy thing)

Old oaks stand tall Annie, seen the world grow small Annie
D A G D
But when they fall Annie, where will we be?

Winter has come Annie, No strength in the sun, Annie
D A G D
And when it?s gone Annie, where shall we be?
