(verse)
 
B                         G#m 
I was running late again, picking up a few things 
    B                      F# 
And there you were on isle 13. 
  B                            G#m 
I felt that old rush, when you saw me you blushed 
         B                       F# 
Like you did when you were sweet sixteen. 
     E                           B 
They said you looked lost on the dancefloor, 
        E                  B 
With a lonely look in your eyes. 
           E                          B 
Don't know why I didn't show, to this day I still don't know 
    E                            F# 
For once I wish I hadn't thought twice. 
          Bmaj7                  B 
Then your folks split up and you moved to Colorado, 
      E             B 
And I headed out to Tennessee. 
E                             B 
Heard you got married and you moved back home, 
Emaj7                      B  
Here we are again, you and me. 




        B                          F# 
It's no surprise the light in your little girl's eyes, 
G#m                          E 
Shines like the ring on your hand. 
E        F#        B       F# G#m F#m E 
Annie, I owe you a dance. 



(verse)
 
B                             E 
Don't the years fly by in the blink of an eye, 
     G#m               F# 
Yeah loves, I've had a few. 
     B                              E        
I've been a million places and I've seen a million faces, 
      G#m                          F# 
But I couldn't stop thinking 'bout you. 
E                          F#     G#m                  F#    
Remember how we'd talk for hours, keeping each other's secrets, 
       E                       B 
Made a promise I'd take you to homecoming, 
    E       F#     G#m  F# 
But Annie I didn't keep it. 
       B                     F# 
Almost called you up, when I played it bolder, 
      G#m                     B  
But I thought I'd just let it be. 
          B                F# 
Heard you found yourself a real good man, 
       G#m                   B 
Do you ever think of you and me? 



        B                          F# 
It's no surprise the light in your little girl's eyes, 
G#m                          E 
Shines like the ring on your hand. 
E        F#        B 
Annie, I owe you a dance.

(verse-0ut)
 
            B                               E 
So put your groceries in the basket, I'm so sorry, now I'm asking 
       G#m                      F# 
Like I should have twenty years ago. 
      B                            E       
And I know it's all over, I'm just looking for some closure, 
              G#m         F#  
And there's a song on the radio. 
    E                        B 
You give me your hand and we start to dance, 
    E                  B 
The cashier gives us a smile. 
       E                               B    
As you turn and walk away, I hear your little girl say 
E                    B 
"Momma, who was that guy?" 
  B                            F# 
I shouldn't be surprised, look forgiveness in your eyes, 
G#m              E 
Gave me a second chance. 
E      F#     (no chord)       B F# G#m F# E,  B 
Annie, thanks for the dance.
