Annie Waits Tab

by Ben Folds Five


Very good song!


Intro:
C--C--G--C pause (x2)

verse 1
G--C         G
And so, 
                                   
annie waits, annie waits, annie waits

C          Am--G       F       G
    for a call from a friend
     
The same
                                
Whats the same?  Is it always the same?
                      
Annie waits...for the last

Time

o-o-o

verse 2
          
The clock
                               
Never stops, never stops, never waits
             Am--G             F      G
She's growing old, its getting late
        
And so,
                          
He forgot, he forgot, maybe not
                       
Maybe he's been seriously hurt
          
That'd be worse

Intro Chords

Chorus
 (?)                    
Headlights crest the hills
                               
Shadows pass her by and out of sight
             
Ooh--OOh      
                    
Annie sleeps and dreams
                               
Friday bingo, pigeons in the park

             

                  
Annie waits for the last time
                   
Just the same as the last ti-ime
                 
Annie says, "You see,
                              
This is why I'd rather be alone" 
      ........

    
And so,
                                  
Annie waits, Annie waits, Annie waits
               
For a call from a friend
                
The same, Its the same
                     
was it always the same
                 
Annie waits as the last....

(chorus 2--same chords)
Headlights crest the hills
Who will be the one forever more?
Ooh Ooh
Annie I could be
If we're both still lonely 
When we're old

Annie waits for the last time
Just the same as the last ti-ime
(Annie waits) Annie waits for the last time
Just the same as the last ti-ime

Annie waits....but not for me.
