Em7             Csus2 G
Csus2         Dsus4        Em7 

       Em7             Csus2 G
On the banks of the Missou--ri
     Csus2    Dsus4      Em7
Annie washed up in the clay
          Em7          Csus2 G
And they took her to her father
        Csus2   Dsus4   Em7
Told him it was John McCrae
 
        Em7                Csus2  G
Now I'm running through the badlands
Csus2   Dsus4  Em7
Covering my tracks
 Em7     Csus2      G
Northward toward Dakota
        Csus2 Dsus4  Em7
With the devil on my back
 
Am7    Dsus4    G
Oh, the river flows
   Am7            Dsus4                   G
To our           immortal                home
  (To our immortal home, it flows to our home)
      B7         Em7
Oh Annie, oh my soul
 
        Em7                  Csus2  G
Well I took her down by the stream side
       Csus2     Dsus4    Em7
For to make that girl my bride
             Em7               Csus2   G
But in the folds of her pretty white dress
       Csus2    Dsus4   Em7
Lay her father's bowie knife
 
          Em7                   Csus2 G
Well she pulled that steel blade on  me
       Csus2     Dsus4    Em7
Told me she would take my life
     Em7                Csus2 G
So I pushed her into the ri--ver
        Csus2  Dsus4    Em7
She went under with the tide
 
Am7    Dsus4    G
Oh, the river flows
   Am7            Dsus4                   G
To our           immortal                home
  (To our immortal home, it flows to our home)
      B7         Em7
Oh Annie, oh my soul
 
         Em7                Csus2  G
Well the hound dogs they overtook me
  Csus2      Dsus4    Em7
40 miles past Harding town
      Em7                     Csus2 G
And I told that young Douglas sherriff
           Csus2    Dsus4   Em7
"Boy, you'd better shoot me now."
 
               Em7         Csus2  G
He said "Poor Johnny, by my or---ders
    Csus2  Dsus4   Em7
Your life I cannot take
             Em7           Csus2  G
But I'll be smiling at your hang-ing
         Csus2   Dsus4    Em7
When they lay you in the grave."
 
Am7    Dsus4    G
Oh, the river flows
   Am7            Dsus4                   G
To our           immortal                home
  (To our immortal home, it flows to our home)
      B7         Em7
Oh Annie, oh my soul
 
Em7             Csus2   G
Csus2         Dsus4        Em7 (x2)
 
       Em7          Csus2 G
I am standing at the gallows
        Csus2   Dsus4  Em7
And the scaffold it is high
        Em7              Csus2 G
And the hangman asked my last words
      Csus2  Dsus4      Em7
Before I'm condemned to die
 
      Em7                  Csus2 G
And I begged God, "Don't forgive me
        Csus2   Dsus4   Em7
For the troubles I have sown
          Em7              Csus2  G
For I'll soon see my pretty Ann---ie
      Csus2     Dsus4    Em7
In the hell fire down below."
 
Am7       Dsus4        G
Oh, the    river      flows
   Am7            Dsus4                   G
To our           immortal                home
  (To our immortal home, it flows to our home)
      B7         Em7
Oh Annie, oh my soul
 
     B7          Em7 Csus2   G
Oh Annie, oh my soul
     B7          Em7
Oh Annie, oh my soul
