Am Am                  G G                  F F   E E
Annan water, you loom so deep and wide
Am Am G G F F E E
I would cross over if you would stem the tide
Am Am G G F F E E
Build a boat that I might ford the other side
Am Am G G F F E E Am Am
To reach the farthest shore where my true love lies in wait for me
F F E E Am Am
In wait for me
F F E E Am Am
In wait for me
F F E E Am Am
In wait for me


G G F F E E
O grey river, your waters ramble wild
Am Am G G F F E E
The horses shiver and bite against the bridle
Am Am G G F F E E
But I will cross if mine own horse is pulled from me
Am Am G G F F E E Am Am
Though my mother cries that if I try, I sure will drowned be
F F E E Am Am
Will drowned be
F F E E Am Am
Will drowned be
F F E E Am Am A A
Will drowned be


D D Dm Dm A A F#m F#m
If you calm and let me pass
D D E E A A A7 A7
You may render me a wreck when I come back
D D Dm Dm A A F#m F#m
So calm your waves and slow the churn
D D E E Am Am
And you may have my precious bones on my return


[Interlude: Am Am G G F F E E (x2)]


Am Am G G F F E E
Annan Water, O hear my true love's call
Am Am G G F F E E
Here her holler above your water's pall
Am Am G G F F E E
God that I could, that my two arms could give me wing
Am Am G G F F E E Am Am
And I would cross your breadth and rest my breast about her amber ring
F F E E Am Am
Her amber ring
F F E E Am Am
Her amber ring
F F E E Am Am A A
Her amber ring


D D Dm Dm A A F#m F#m
But if you calm and let me pass
D D E E A A A7 A7
You may render me a wreck when I come back
D D Dm Dm A A F#m F#m
So calm your waves and slow the churn
D D E E
And you may have my precious bones on my
Dm Dm
On my return
