13. Annan Water
VERSE 1
Am
Annan water, you loom so deep and wide
I would cross over if you would stem the tide
Or build a boat that I might ford the other side
F
To reach the farther shore where my true love lies in wait for me
G Am F Em G Am
In wait for me, in wait for me, in wait for me
VERSE 2
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
F
Though my mother cries that if I try I sure will drowned be
G Am F Em G Am
Will drowned be, will drowned be, will drowned be
CHORUS
D Dm A F#m
But if you calm and let me pass
D E A A7
You may render me a wreck when I come back
D Dm A A7
So calm your waves and slow the churn
D E Am
And you may have my precious bones on my return
VERSE 3
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
F
And I would cross your breadth and rest my breast about her amber ring
G Am F Em G Am
Her amber ring, her amber ring, her amber ring
CHORUS
D Dm A F#m
But if you calm and let me pass
D E A A7
You may render me a wreck when I come back
D Dm A A7
So calm your waves and slow the churn
D E [start verse tabs here]
And you may have my precious bones on my return
Dm
On my, on my return
Am

Verse 1:
Em G
Margaret arrayed the rocks around the hull before it was sinking
Em G
A million stones, a million bones, a million holes within the chinking
Am C
And painting rings around your eyes these peppered holes
G
So filled with crying
Am C G
A whisper weighed upon the tattered down where you and I were lying
Verse 2:
Em G
Tell me now, tell me this, A forest's son, a river's daughter
Em G
A willow on the willow wisp, our ghosts will wander all of the water
Am C G
So let's be married here today these rushing waves to bare our witness
Am C G Em D
And we will lie like river stones rolling only where it takes us
Chorus:
C Am G Em D
But I pulled you and I called you here (Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I?)
Am C G Em
And I caught you and I brought you here (Didn’t I)
D Am C/B C D G
These hazards of love, never more will trouble us
Em G Em G
Am C G Am C G
Verse 3:
Em G
Oh Margaret the lapping waves are licking quietly at our ankles
Em G
Another bow another breath this brilliant chills come for the shackle
Am C G
With this long last rush of air we speak our vows and sorry whispers
Am C G
When the waves came crashing down, he closed his eyes and softly kissed her
Chorus:
C Am G Em D
But I pulled you and I called you here (Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I?)
Am C G Em
And I caught you and I brought you here (Didn’t I)
