James Blunt - Annie Lyrics
KAPO 1
Em D G
Annie, I saw your name in bright lights
D
I thought I saw your photograph
C
having such a laugh, in a magazine
Did it all come tumbling?
Em D G
Annie, you were made for the big time
D
They said you were a star to be
In the NME
C Em D G C
But the walls came tumbling down, down, will you go down on me
C
'Cause Annie you're a star
G
You're just not going very far
D Em
And all the world will know your name
C
And you'll be famous as you are
D
'Cause I'll sing for you
Annie, would it be nice to be recognized?
Did you practice your autograph?
But then no one's asked
And it's such a shame
The dreams are crumbling
Annie, why aren't you big in limelight?
'Cause I thought that you said you'd be
A celebrity several years ago
Did it all came tumbling down, down, will you go down on me
Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you
Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you
Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you
