Standard (EADGBE)

There was a girl named Annie, she had a very pretty face

And not the way you would think so let me see if I can try to explain it

She had a smile it could light up the room and if she moved it'd be moving in you

But she wasn't like a magazine, she was just plain jane and her name was

Annie

(Verse-1)

She never looked in the mirror, she never liked what she would see

And even if I tried to tell her, she never listened to a word I'd say

She always wanted what she never had, but never had what she needed so badly

Someone telling her she was fine and that's not right and it's why I'm saying

(Chorus)

Annie don't be shy here, Annie don't just lie there, looks don't make the

world go round,

But it comes around

Annie don't be shy here, Annie please don't cry here, I always have to stop

myself

Cause you're beautiful

(Verse-2)

I didn't know if I could tell her, I didn't know if I could make her see

She didn't need to find her beauty, she didn't need to find a way to show me

They took her moments of feeling alive and made them moments of dying inside

She needed someone to scream her name, to take her pain and it's why I screaming

(Chorus)

Annie don't be shy here, Annie don't just lie there, looks don't make the

world go round,

But it comes around

Annie don't be shy here, Annie please don't cry here, I always have to stop

myself

Cause you're beautiful

(Bridge)

And Annie you are the one sight my eyes never tire of, it's like I cannot get enough of you

Annie you are the one song left in my symphony, like you were made for me

(Chorus)

Annie don't be shy here, Annie don't just lie there, looks don't make the

world go round,

But it comes around

Annie don't be shy here, Annie please don't cry here, I always have to stop

myself

Cause you're beautiful

Annie don't be shy here, Annie don't just lie there, looks don't make the

world go round,

But it comes around

Annie don't be shy here, Annie please don't cry here, I always have to stop

myself

I just stop myself. I just stop myself!
