Tim McGraw, "Annie I Owe You A Dance"
[B] [F#] [G#m] [F#m] [E]
(verse)
[B]I was running late again, [G#m]picking up a few things
And [B]there you were on isle [F#]13.
I [B]felt that old rush, when you [G#m]saw me you blushed
Like you [B]did when you were sweet [F#]sixteen.
They [E]said you looked lost on the [B]dancefloor,
With a l[E]onely look in your [B]eyes.
Don't know [E]why I didn't show, to this [B]day I still don't know
For [E]once I wish I hadn't thought [F#]twice.
Then your [Bmaj7]folks split up and you [B]moved to Colorado,
And I [E]headed out to [B]Tennessee.
[E]Heard you got married and you [B]moved back home,
[Emaj7]Here we are again, you and [B]me.
(chorus)
It's no [B]surprise the light in your [F#]little girl's eyes,
[G#m]Shines like the ring on your [E]hand.
[E]Annie, I [F#]owe you a [B]dance.[F#][G#m][F#m][E]
(verse)
[B]Don't the years fly by in the [E]blink of an eye,
Yeah [G#m]loves, I've had a [F#]few.
I've [B]been a million places and I've [E]seen a million faces,
But I [G#m]couldn't stop thinking 'bout [F#]you.
[E]Remember how we'd talk for [F#]hours, [G#m]keeping each other's [F#]secrets,
Made a [E]promise I'd take you to [B]homecoming,
But [E]Annie I [F#]didn't [G#m]keep [F#]it.
Almost [B]called you up, when I [F#]played it bolder,
But I [G#m]thought I'd just let it [B]be.
Heard you [B]found yourself a [F#]real good man,
Do you [G#m]ever think of you and [B]me?
(chorus)
It's no [B]surprise the light in your [F#]little girl's eyes,
[G#m]Shines like the ring on your [E]hand.
[E]Annie, I [F#]owe you a [B]dance.
(instrumental)
B E F#, B E F#
(verse-0ut)
So put your [B]groceries in the basket, I'm so [E]sorry, now I'm asking
Like I [G#m]should have twenty years [F#]ago.
And I [B]know it's all over, I'm just [E]looking for some closure,
And there's a [G#m]song on the [F#]radio.
You [E]give me your hand and we [B]start to dance,
The [E]cashier gives us a [B]smile.
As you [E]turn and walk away, I hear your [B]little girl say
[E]"Momma, who was that [B]guy?"
I [B]shouldn't be surprised, look [F#]forgiveness in your eyes,
[G#m]Gave me a second [E]chance.
E F# (no chord) B F# G#m F# E, B
Annie, thanks for the dance.
