For Annie

Bb          C             F
No one ever noticed Annie weeping.
Bb         C                   Dm  C  Bb
People all around, but she was all alone.
Gm             C            Am              Dm
Mama's got her meetings and Daddy's got his job,
Bb                   C               Dm C   Bb     F
but no one's got the time so Annie's on her own.

Bb          C        F
No one ever knew her desperation.
Bb              C                Dm C  Bb
People couldn't hear her cry out silently.
Gm                C             Am            Dm
Locked inside the bathroom she grabs a jar of pills.
Bb                C                 Dm  C       Bb
The medicine that cures becomes the poison that kills.

1st CHORUS
==========
Bb  C    Dm           C      Bb                  F
And it's too late for Annie. She's gone away for good.
Bb                       C            Bb             C
There's so much we could tell her and now we wish we could.
             Bb C           Dm C     F
But it's too late, it's too late for Annie.

Bb                C                 F
Sadness fills the hearts of Annie's family.
Bb             C            Dm C  Bb
Daddy tries to comfort Mama uselessly.
Gm                       C                   Am            Dm
They hoped she knew they loved her, but they really didn't know.
Bb                C                  Dm C Bb
They just want to know why did their baby go.

2nd CHORUS
==========
Bb  C    Dm           C      Bb                  F
And it's too late for Annie. She's gone away for good.
Bb                      C               Bb                 C
There's so much that we could tell her, and now we wish we could.
         Dm             C          Dm             C
We would tell her Jesus loves her, tell her Jesus cares.
Dm              C                Dm C    Bb
Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
             Bb C           Dm C     F
But it's too late, it's too late for Annie.

Bb                C         F
If only we'd have known her situation,
Bb                 C                 Dm C  Bb
We'd have tried to stop this useless tragedy.
Gm           C        Am          Dm
Annie's lost forever, never to be found.
Bb                    C               Dm  C   Bb
But there are lots of others like her all around.

      Bb                 C        Bb                 C
Don't miss the chance to tell her before her life is through.
         Dm             C          Dm             C
We gotta Tell her Jesus loves her, Tell her Jesus cares.

Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.

Tell her Jesus loves her, Tell her Jesus cares.

Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
              Dm             C          Dm             C
You've got to tell her Jesus loves her, Tell her Jesus cares.
Dm              C                Dm C    Bb
Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
              Dm
It's not, too late
