Listen now children, a [A] story [D] I'll tell of a [Bm] woman they [G] call _ [D] Annalee.
_ _ _ She had a fine son and she raised him up well, [Bm] and a daughter as [G] lovely [D] as she.
_ _ _ [A] I'll return to you dear in the [D] dimming of day, [Am] as her [G] sparrow _ returns to [D] her nest.
_ _ _ [G] I'll return [D] to you dreaming with each love of mine, oh [G] you sweet weary head to [Em] my [D] _ breast.
_ [Gm] She'd [D] sing to her [Bm] [D] darlings a [A] sweet _ [D] lullaby [Bm] as the evening [G] shadows grow [D] long. _ _ _ _
Angels and _ nightingales [A] gather in night to [Bm] hear mother [G] _ _
[D] Annalee's song.
_ _ [A] I'll return to you dear in [D] the dimming of day, [G] as her sparrow returns to [D] her _ _ nest.
[G]
[D] I'll return to you dreaming [A] with each love of [D] mine, [G] oh you sweet weary head to [D] my _ breast. _ _

Early one [Bm] morning [D]
she rode into _ town [G] to tend to her dear sister _ [D] there. _ _
[G] She [D] kissed her two babies on cheek [A] and on brow, [D]
[Bm] and left them [G] with an airy [D] care.
_ The _ wind it did rise and [A] the rain it [D] did fall, [G] the river a _ [D] shadowy wave.
_ _ [G] _
_ [D] _ Annalee never [A] heard danger's dark call [G]
and was swept to her watery [D] _ grave.
_ _ [A]
I'll return to you dear [D] in the dimming of day, [G] as her sparrow _ returns to [D] her _ [G] [D] nest.
I'll return to you dreaming [A] with each love of [D] mine, [G] oh you sweet weary head to my [D] _ breast. _
