Verse:
C F
I found something crying; it was my soul
G Em
I fed it milk so it wouldn't grow old
Am Dm
We crossed the borderline at dawn
F G
And woke up in a field of corn
C F
My father told me i was late
G Em
I better start oiling the gate
Am Dm
Said that those that rush will fall
F
But I don't want to wait for waves
G
I don't want to wait at all
Chorus:
C Em
Annie, let's not wait
F
Let's cross the river now
Am
We could sit for years
F
Staring at our fears
Em Dm
Oh, they're such pretty things, they're so cute
F G
But our dreams are all we really need to grow
Verse:
I found something dying; it was my light
It had resigned itself to night
So I threw it out a fishing line
And said "Catch your will and then catch mine"
Chorus:
Annie, let's not wait
Let's cross the river now
We could sit for years
Staring at our fears
Oh, they're such pretty things, they're so cute
But in the end they're just a suit
Chorus:
Oh, Annie, let's not wait
Time's not on our side
Well, it never was
You know that, deep inside
Oh just look at you with your ruffled hair
Oh, I love you and that's all you need to know
Chorus Chords
"Annie Annie"
