A        F#m    C#m5-/7        F#m
Alone in the world was poor little Anne
  D9        Bm5-/7  E7/13   E7   A   Edim E7
As sweet a  young  child   as you'd find
  A       F#m      C#m5-/7       F#m
Her parents had gone to their final reward
D9   Bm5-/7     E7  E7/13  E7 A Edim E7
Leavin' their   baby   behind
  A        F#m          C#m5-/7       F#m
This poor little child was only nine years of age
  D9     Bm5-/7  E7/13 E7   A Edim E7
When mother and  dad   went away
A          F#m       C#m5-/7        F#m
Still bravely worked at the one thing she knew
  D9  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13  E7  Fdim A
To earn her few pennies  a   day
Refrain one:
A7   D9   Bm5-/7     Dm6     A   D9      A
She made artificial flowers, artificial flowers
D9 Fdim  Bm5-/7  E7      A D9  Fdim A
Flowers for ladies of fashion to wear
A7   D9   Bm5-/7
She made artificial    flowers 
 Dm6        A   C#m5-/7       F#7
You know those artificial    flowers
D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 A
Fashioned from   Annie's  despair
   A      F#m         C#m5-/7   F#m
With paper and shears, with some wire and wax
  D9   Bm5-/7 E7/13  E7      A Edim E7
She made up  each  tulip and mum
   A        F#m       C#m5-/7     F#m
As snowflakes drifted into her tenement room
D9 Fdim Bm5-/7     E7   A D9 Fdim A
Her baby little fingers grew numb
Refrain two
   A7  D9     Bm5-/7     Dm6    A   D9        A
From makin' artificial flowers, artificial flowers
D9  Fdim   Bm5-/7    E7     A   D9   Fdim  A
Flowers for ladies    of high fashion to wear
A7   D9   Bm5-/7     Dm6     A   D9      A
She made artificial flowers, artificial flowers
D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 A
Fashioned from   Annie's  despair
  A        F#m        C#m5-/7     F#m
They found little Annie all covered in ice
     D9     Dm6    Bm5-/7   E7/13   E7   A Edim E7
Still clutchin' her poor frozen    shears
 A        F#m         C#m5-/7      F#m
Amidst all the blossoms she had fashioned by hand
 D9 Bm5-/7  E7/13   E7   Fdim  A   Edim E7
And watered with all  her young tears
    A     F#m          C#m5-/7       F#m
There must be a heaven where little Annie can play
  D9   Dm6    Bm5-/7 E7/13   E7  A Edim E7
In heavenly    gardens    and bowers
  A        F#m          C#m5-/7       F#m
And instead of a halo she'll wear 'round her head
  D9 Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 Fdim A D9 A
A garland of genuine  flowers  
Refrain three
A7   D9    Bm5-/7     Dm6
No more artificial flowers 
   Fdim     A     D9     A
Throw away those artificial flowers
D9  Fdim    Bm5-/7    E7  Fdim  A   D9   Fdim A
Flowers    for ladies    of society  to  wear
    A7    D9     Bm5-/7     Dm6     A     C#m5-/7   F#7
Throw away those artificial    flowers, those dumb-dumb flower
 D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7 E7  E7/13 Fdim
Fashioned from Annie's, 
D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 A
Fashioned from   Annie's  despair
Bm5-/7      Cdim    A6
Give her the real thing
