Verse 1 (use verse tab)
Annan water, you loom so deep and wide 
I would cross over if you would stem the tide 
Or build aboat (x02210@1)that I might ford the other side                    FTo (133211@1)reach the farther shore where my true love lies in wait for me 
G (320003@1)         Am (x02210@1) F (133211@1)         Em (022000@1)G (320003@1)         Am (x02210@1)            
In wait for me,  in wait for me, in wait for me 

Verse 2: (use verse 1 chords)
Oh, great river, your waters ramble wild
The horses shiver and bite against the bridle
But I will cross if mine own horse is pulled from me 
Though my mother cries that if I try I sure will drowned be
Will drowned be, will drowned be, will drowned be

Verse 3: (use verse 1 chords)
Annan water, oh hear my true love's call 
Hear her holler above your water's pall 
God, that I could that my two arms could give me wings
And I would cross your breadth and rest my breast about her amber ring 
Her amber ring, her amber ring
