tim mcgraw , “annie i owe you a dance”

B F# G#m F#m E

( 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 .

( chorus )
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?

( chorus )
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 .

( instrumental )
B E F# , B E F#

( 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 .
