C5                                 G5
Im skippin stones at the edge of the dock
    A5                               F5
A fog came rollin in, quiet like a hawk
         C5                                            G5
The rivers so smooth, it could shatter with a rock
     A5                                C5     F5
It felt like I was walking on water

Then the doctors daughter came and dove right in
Lord almighty, shes in nothing but skin
I could turn my head but she may never come again
Shes filling the sky with her laughter

Chorus
          C5              G5
Annalee, Annalee
               A5                                          F5
Youre shaking the timbers youre rattling the leaves
                  C5                               G5
Theres a full moon rising in front of me
                     A5                         C5             F5
Come and stake your claim on my memory
Annalee, Annalee
Did the good Lord send you down to deliver me
Come lay your head in a bed of leaves
I am here, I am yours for the taking


Well around about midnight on a riverboat ride
Im a mandolin jukebox and Annies at my side
One bottle empty, one waiting like a bride
Shes dancing like light on the water

Weve got six weeks till college, six weeks and then were gone
Oh, life is like a river and the rivers rolling on
So come on, Annie, you taste like brandy
Will you kiss me awake come morning?

Chorus

Bridge
C5                        A5
I cant promise a lifetime of tomorrows

F5                                                        G5
What tomorrow brings God only knows
               C5                                       A5
I know this about tomorrow, were filling it with sorrow
      F5                            G5
If we let tonight just end

Chorus
