Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 Annie, I hope things line up for you Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 All in a row, shiny and new Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 You can't keep on living in one small room Dm Eb When you never let anyone in Dm Eb You never let anyone in Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 And Annie, you think the whole world's been cruel Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 All the stars took advantage of you Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 Your mother was cold and your daddy'd no love Dm Eb So you stomped your feet till they noticed Dm Eb You stomped your feet till they put on the kid glovesGmadd9 Cmadd9 Now they're walking on eggshells, they're walking on glass Gmadd9 Cmadd9 Sing hallelujah each time that you pass Abadd9 Cmadd9 Eb And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and goVerse 2:
Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 And Annie you think the boys never played fair Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 Tripping you up, sticking gum in your hair Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 Wherever you run, it's yourself you face there Dm Eb And he might be gone when you need him Dm Eb And he might be long gone when you find you careGmadd9 Cmadd9 'Cause he's walking on eggshells, he's walking on glass Gmadd9 Cmadd9 He sings you a lullaby each time you ask Abadd9 Cmadd9 Eb And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and goVerse 3:
Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 And Annie, I love you, that's always been clear Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 It's the layers of history that won't let us hear Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 The twisted compassion that's burning our ears Dm Eb The distance from there to here Dm Eb The distance from there to hereGmadd9 Cmadd9 'Cause I'm walking on eggshells, I'm walking on glass Gmadd9 Cmadd9 We sing you a lullaby each time you ask Abadd9 Cmadd9 Eb And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go Gmadd9 Cmadd9 'Cause you're gambling again and the stakes are too high Gmadd9 Cmadd9 Your ante is fear and my bet is desire Abadd9 Cmadd9 Eb Took you far from the truth and into the fire againOutro Dm Eb You never let anyone in Dm Eb you never let anyone in Dm Eb You never let anyone inVerse 4:
Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 And Annie, I hope things line up for you Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 All in a row, shiny and new Bbmaj7 Gm Ebadd9 You can't keep on living in one small room Dm Eb When you never let anyone in
