Intro: C    


       F               C 
I went down to Annie's house 
F                            C 
Down the road and across the river 
      G                  F       C 
And I stood there in the warm sunshine 
      G                             C        
And I wished that day would last forever 


      F                     C 
And I look upon her face so fair 
      F                       C 
And I cannot see what shadows lie 
  G                   F          C 
Behind the smile that lights her face 
  G                      C    
Behind the kind and open eyes 


 
    F                      C 
And I went down to Annie's house 
F                            C 
Down the road and across the river 
      G                  F       C 
And I stood there in the warm sunshine 
      G                             C        
And I wished that day would last forever 


INTERLUDE: C  F  C  G  (2x) C 


             F                   C 
And in these green New Hampshire hills 
    F                            C 
The town lies nestled, clapboard white 
G                F       C 
Sits in silence, picture-still 
G                       C       
Sleeping in the warm sunlight 


    F                       C 
And I walked down the empty street 
      F                     C 
Can't see behind the window glass 
      G                 F    C 
Can't see the town that lies beneath 
  G                         C       
Between the present and the past 


 
    F                      C 
And I went down to Annie's house 
F                            C 
Down the road and across the river 
      G                  F       C 
And I stood there in the warm sunshine 
      G                             C        
And I wished that day would last forever
