#20 in '60.
[Verse 1]
D Bm F#m Bm
Alone in the world was poor little Anne,
G Em7 A7
As sweet a young child as you'd find.
D Bm F#m7 Bm
Her parents had gone to their final reward,
G Em7 A7 D A7
Leavin' their ba - by behind.
[Verse 2]
D Bm F#m7 Bm
This poor little child was only nine years of age,
G Em7 A A7
when mother and dad went away.
D Bm F#m7 Bm
Still bravely she worked at the one thing she knew,
G Em7 A7 D
to earn her few pennies a day.
[Chorus]
D7 G Em7 Gm D G B7
She made artificial flowers, those artificial flowers,
G Em7 A7 D G D
Flowers for ladies of fashion to wear.
D7 G Em7 Gm Gm7 D F#m7 B7
She made artificial flowers, you know those artificial flowers,
G Gm Em7 A7 D
Fash..ioned from Annie's despair.
[Verse 3]
D Bm F#m Bm
With paper and shears, with some wire and wax,
G Em7 A7
She made up each tulip and mum.
D Bm F#m7 Bm
As snowflakes drifted into her tenement room,
G Em7 A7 D
Her poor little fingers grew numb.
[Chorus]
D7 G Em7 Gm D G B7
From makin' artificial flowers, those artificial flowers
G Em7 A7 D G D
Flowers for ladies of high fashion to wear.
D7 G Em7 Gm D F#m7 B7
She made artificial flowers, artificial flowers
G Gm Em7 A7 D
Fash..ioned from Annie's despair.
[Verse 4]
D Bm F#m Bm
They found little Annie all covered in ice,
G Em7 A7
Still clutchin' her poor frozen shears.
D Bm F#m7 Bm
Amidst all the blossoms she had fashioned by hand,
G Em7 A7 D A7
And watered with all her young tears.
[Verse 5]
D Bm F#m7 Bm
There must be a heaven where little Annie can play
